Projects | Montreal Mobility Survey
Transportation Research at McGill (TRAM) is conducting a major research project measuring the social and well-being impacts of the construction of the Réseau express métropolitain (REM) project in Montreal. This research is funded by The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Project numbers CIHR PJT-195797, CIHR LIM-192221, CPG-170602, and CPG-170602 X- 253156 and The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) Project number CHRPJ 549576-20.
This page is dedicated to posting research produced from this project by students including policy briefs, reports, and peer reviewed publications.
