Originally the communities around Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu were included but the town now has its own public transit system which serves that area.

Commuter service to Montreal is the major function of the CIT, either directly to the downtown bus terminal via a reserved bus lane on the Champlain Bridge or with shuttle bus connections to the Delson-Candiac commuter rail line, which is operated by Agence métropolitaine de transport.

In 2007, CIT Le Richelain renewed the contract with the "Gestrans" [ [http://www.gestrans.ca/clients.html Gestrans Inc. experts in public transit - clients] ] to provide all management services and renewed its agreement with the carrier "La Québécoise" for the operation of the buses.
