Réseau de transport de Longueuil (RTL) (English: Longueuil Transit Network) is a public transit carrier in the city of Longueuil, Quebec, Canada and nearby communities on the South Shore of Montreal.
RTL was officially inaugurated on July 1, 1974 as Commission de transport de la Rive Sud de Montréal (CTRSM), replacing the former privately-owned company Chambly Transport. It served the former communities of Boucherville, Brossard, Greenfield Park, Longueuil, LeMoyne, St. Hubert, St. Lambert, and Notre Dame Municipality. Between 1985 and 2002 it was named Société de transport de la Rive-Sud de Montréal (STRSM) (See official website). In 2002 it was about to be named Société de transport de Longueuil (STL) but that was put aside when it was realized that there was already an STL, the Société de transport de Laval.
Some of the "former" municipalities demerged (broke away) from the City of Longueuil on January 1, 2006 as the result of referenda. However, demerged municipalities continue to be served by and to contribute financially to the RTL.
