  • Gatineau Tramway: An overview of the project for the West of Gatineau
    2023/02/24
    Gatineau is the 4th largest city by population in the Province of Quebec and borders Canada's capital, Ottawa in Ontario. A significant portion of the population, over 60,000 crosses the interprovincial bridges every day to travel between their place of work and their home. With the population and development quickly growing in both Aylmer and the Plateau, a more sustainable and higher capacity transit option is needed to continue to properly serve the West of Gatineau. A tramway was determined to be the best option for its increased capacity over buses and bus rapid transit, as well as the lower environmental impact it would bring in our battle against climate change. The tramway would cross into Ottawa and arrive in proximity to the existing Ottawa O-Train Line 1, thereby facilitating transfers and allowing easy access for passengers whom have a destination outside of the downtown core. In this video with Patrick Robert-Meunier of MOBI-O (Centre de gestion des déplacements de Gatineau), we discuss the Tramway project, where it will go, how it will enter Ottawa, the changes it will bring to the region and the current status of the project.

  • Dedicated Tracks for the Corridor - An Overview of High Frequency Rail (HFR) in Canada
    2023/02/21
    On February 17, 2023, the Request for Qualifications for HFR was launched to pre-qualify up to 3 bidders for the Request for Proposals. As such, it is a great time to reflect on what is HFR and what it will mean for Canada. High Frequency Rail (HFR) is the current plan to improve passenger rail in the Corridor. By using dedicated tracks between Quebec City and Toronto, the travel experience is bound to improve considerably. With more frequent, reliable and faster trains, it is expected that an increasing number of people will choose to ride the rails instead of flying or driving, an important element in addressing the climate crisis. HFR will be the most transformative change to passenger rail in Canada since the incorporation of VIA Rail in 1977. Video by David Bellerive (@dbellerive15)

  • The Plan To Bring High Speed Rail to the Corridor - Alstom's Proposal for High Frequency Rail (HFR)
    2023/02/01
    While the procurement for High Frequency Rail (HFR) continues, there is a lot that remains unknown about what the future of passenger rail will be like in the Corridor. Alstom decided to go public with their vision of this future. Instead of opting for the current design goal of 200km/h tracks and service, Alstom believe that High Speed Rail (HSR) with maximum speeds of 300km/h might be the better solution to increase ridership and the modal share of passenger rail. Join us as we go over their plan and what the future could look like. Huge thanks to High Speed Rail Canada for releasing the presentation deck and maps used throughout the video. https://www.highspeedrailcanada.com/2023/01/Alstom-TGV-Ontario-Quebec.html Bruno Marchand en faveur du TGV (La Presse) https://www.lapresse.ca/actualites/2023-01-24/bruno-marchand-en-faveur-du-tgv.php Alstom propose à nouveau un TGV entre Québec et Toronto (Journal de Montréal) https://www.journaldemontreal.com/2023/01/24/alstom-propose-a-nouveau-un-tgv-entre-quebec-et-toronto Le projet de TGV mérite d’être étudié, estime Plante https://journalmetro.com/actualites/2991135/tgv-montreal-favorable-a-letude-du-projet/ Video by David Bellerive (@dbellerive15).
