Mobility · Modulimo

Your city,
car-free.

Modulimo embeds a complete inter-modal mobility chain right into your living environment — from velomobile to train, river to REM.

Inter-modality embedded in the environment

Three modes,
a single living environment.

Pillar 01
Shared mobility
Mobilité partagée

1 to 2 electric minivans included, plus the building's velomobiles: vehicles and velomobiles are booked by the hour from CoHabitat, alongside resident carpooling. Innovations for autonomous vehicles coming — no driver needed to pick you up.

Pillar 02
Transport en commun
Transport en commun

The Bureau / 100th Avenue (PAT) bus stop is right next door. Lines 86, 410, 487 — terminus adjacent to the project.

Pillar 03
Micro mobilité
Micro mobilité

Bike parking and 2 borrowable velomobiles — a futuristic innovation at the heart of the Modulimo project.

The concept

A chain,
not a list
of stops.

Inter-modality is not about being "close to the metro". It is designing every trip as a fluid sequence — where each mode hands off to the next, without friction, without a personal car.


At Modulimo, that chain starts inside the building with the velomobiles and reaches the international airport via the REM.

TOD — Transit-Oriented Development

The network first,
the building around it.

TOD — Transit-Oriented Development — means concentrating housing within walking distance of a transit access point, leaving less room for the car and more for walking. The Montreal Metropolitan Community's land-use and development plan (PMAD) makes it a central orientation.


TOD is usually planned at the scale of a neighbourhood around a station. Modulimo applies it at the scale of a building: at Pointe Est, the site, the density, the parking and the services all start from the neighbouring bus terminus — and the model is designed to be repeated near other network access points.

01🚏
Proximity
The STM terminus (routes 86, 410, 487) is right next door. School adjacent, parks and Plage de l'Est within walking distance.
02🏘️
Gentle density
6 homes on 3 storeys, at neighbourhood scale: adding density near transit, without a tower, through a PPCMOI process.
03🅿️
Rethought parking
4 basement spaces, all CoHabitat car-sharing — no private spaces. The space saved goes to greenery.
04👪
Household mix
3-bedroom family homes paired with 1- or 2-bedroom units: grandparents, families and young adults under one roof.
05🌳
Human scale
Food forest, green roof, bike parking and velomobiles: a setting designed for walking and cycling, not for the car.
06🔗
The last mile
Where walking isn't enough, shared mobility takes over to the station, the shuttle dock or the REM — that's MaaS, below.
MaaS — Mobility as a Service
Six modes, one account.

MaaS — Mobility as a Service — means bringing every transport service, public, shared or rented, together into a single offer. At Modulimo that offer has a name: CoHabitat, the app included with your home — for the share that belongs to the building.

01
Book in one place

Minivans, velomobiles and neighbour carpooling are booked from the same screen. The uses see one another: a velomobile already committed to a carpool trip does not show as free for that slot.

02
Pay from a single balance

No per-service subscription, no card to top up: a single balance, charged by usage time. The cost is shown before you confirm, and a cancellation made more than two hours ahead is refunded.

03
Getting you to the network, without selling the ticket

That is where inter-modality lies: shared mobility takes you to the network — STM terminus, East Train station, shuttle dock, REM station, airport. A velomobile to catch the bus, a minivan to head to the station four-up. The ticket itself is bought from its operator: Modulimo resells none of them.

The modes

Everything you
need,
integrated.

Each mode answers a specific need. Together they cover all your trips — from daily to international.

01🚲
Velomobile ✦ Innovation
A reinvented human-powered vehicle. In development — available for resident loans.
02🚌
Autobus STM
Terminus for 3 lines at your door. Regulated departures, optimal frequency.
03⛴️
Navette fluviale
30 minutes to the Old Port. A scenic alternative — bring your bike on board.
04🚆
Train de l'Est
Pointe-aux-Trembles station connects directly to Central Station. Wheelchair accessible.
05🚇
Metro + REM
The green line and the future REM open up all of Greater Montreal from a single hub.
06🚐
Mobilité partagée
Shared electric minivan, bookable by the hour via CoHabitat — like the velomobiles. Ideal for group trips.
TGV Québec-Toronto — Modulimo
The intercity horizon

The link
that is coming.

Modulimo's inter-modal chain will be connected to the future Quebec-Toronto high-speed train. Just as Hydro-Québec set new standards by raising transmission voltage to 750 kV, the high-speed/high-frequency rail represents an opportunity to redefine intercity mobility in Quebec — and Modulimo will be on that network.

Montréal 0 h Departure point
Quebec City ~1 h High-speed rail planned
Toronto ~3 h TGV prévu
The building is not near transit.
It is part of the network.
01
Zero forced car ownership

Living without a car does not mean living without freedom. Modulimo's inter-modal chain offers reach equal to or greater than a motorized household's.

02
Real savings

A car-free household saves on average CAD 10,000 to 15,000 per year in Quebec. Modulimo's inter-modality turns those savings into quality of life.

03
Resilient over time

Public transit only keeps growing — East Train, REM, river shuttle. Every improvement automatically benefits Modulimo residents.
