To Serve Eastern Montreal, a Tramway Will Not be

The Eastern Structuring Project (PSE) proposed by the Autorité régionale de transport métropolitain (ARTM) to serve the eastern part of the island of Montreal should not rely solely on a tramway and should be combined with other modes of transportation, according to a researcher. In a report commissioned by Vivre en ville, Marco Chitti notes several shortcomings in the tramway project, including overly optimistic travel times and a route that is not optimal for serving the eastern part.
