Quebec road network reference system
Please note that a web service is currently under development and will be launched in the fall of 2025. To be informed as soon as it is posted online and to stay up to date with geospatial news, subscribe to our newsletter [ActuGéo.] (https://mrnf.gouv.qc.ca/ministere/cartes-information-geographique/repertoire-services-web-donnees-geographiques/actugeo/)
The Quebec Road Network Reference System (RQRR) includes all roads in Quebec as well as several descriptive attributes relating to the characteristics of the road, in particular the following main components:
* The name of the street (odonym)
* Structures
* Address ranges
* The name and code of the municipality
* Road management
* The date of creation, modification and withdrawal
* Etc.
The RQRR is the result of the integration of data in collaboration with the municipal sector and production partners: Élections Québec, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, and the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility.
This data includes municipal and higher road networks (highways, boulevards, etc.) geolocated. This repository is updated monthly, and is available in a single file format (*flat file*).
The RQRR can be used in addition to the [Quebec Address Repository (RQA)] (https://mrnf.gouv.qc.ca/repertoire-geographique/adresses-referentiel-quebecois-adresses/).
