In 1899, railway and power companies merged to form the powerful Quebec Railway Light & Power Company, a trust in the power and transport sectors for the whole Quebec City area.
This company, later known under the name Quebec Power, would run the tramway until its closure in 1948.

In 1910, the network was expanded to Sillery and in 1912, to Beauport.
The tramway was at its peak and covered almost the entire city.
In 1932, the network stretched from Sillery to Montmorency.
At the time, 11 lines in total were in service.

From 1937 onwards, buses' popularity was increasing and caused the disappearance of the trams.
On May 26, 1948, the last line serving Saint-Sauveur was permanently closed.
