A recent of 3884 people reveals differing public opinions on Montr茅al's Light Rail Transit (LRT) and Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) projects. While the LRT (REM) was favored for its extensive coverage and potential regional benefits, it was also criticized for its top-down approach and its focus on wealthier suburban areas. In contrast, the BRT was commended for its governance and consultation process but faces criticism due to its lengthy construction and perceived inadequate capacity.聽

Key findings include:聽

• Regional Impact: 80% support for REM vs. 76% for BRT.聽

• Neighborhood Impact: REM is viewed more positively than the BRT, which has faced significant disruption from construction.聽

• Environmental Impact: Both projects are seen as positive for the environment, though they both face criticisms for construction-related environmental impacts.聽

These insights underscore the need for improved communication and public consultation in future transit projects.聽
