Réseau de transport de la Capitale 0951-0970 were Nova Bus LFS Artic buses built and delivered in 2009. This order was part of a large contract between the Association du transport urbain du Québec and Nova Bus signed in 2007. The contract was for 322 buses for nine Quebec agencies with delivery from 2009 to 2012.[1]

These buses were used on the Metrobus routes and were in the corresponding livery. The buses sported a lime green and grey livery with Metrobus graphics. Inside, the buses sported a colour scheme similar to their exterior. Flooring, lower side walls, and ceiling are in grey, and the area around the windows were in black. The articulation joint had a soft covering on the bellows. The majority of the seating was American Seating InSight models in grey. The remaining seats were those built into the bus structure and the flip-up seats at the front. All seats had lime green inserts with custom Metrobus logos on alternating seats.

All units were retired by January 1, 2025 with the arrival of 2451-2499. The last unit to retire was 0954, which was retired after a breakdown at Terminus Chutes-Montmorency on January 1 at around 4pm.
