Description
In November 2020, the City of Montreal introduced the Reseau Express Velo (REV), or Express Bike Network, effectively transforming a network of arterials throughout the city into complete streets by repurposing vehicles lanes into dedicated AAA bicycle pathways. This session will focus on how pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicle count data can be used to demonstrate how infrastructural improvements and an increase in bicycle and pedestrian traffic boosted the local economy on Saint-Denis Street.
