    MÉMOIRE SUR LE PROJET DE TRAMWAY DE QUÉBEC PRÉSENTÉ AU : Bureau des Audiences Publiques sur l’Environnement (BAPE) PAR : Fernand Trudel, ex-conseiller municipal Présenté en juin 2020 PRÉAMBULE Chers membres du BAPE, Ce mémoire résulte de nombreuses recherches et expériences personnelles. Je suis un ex-conseiller municipal qui a le bien-être de ses concitoyens à coeur. Je ne fais partie qu’aucun groupe ou mouvement et je livre ma propre vision. J’ai une formation comptable et j’ai dirigé des entreprises au le privé dans le domaine des concessions automobiles pendant 5 ans. J’ai été professionnel en situation de gestion à la vérification de la CNESST (CSST). Dans ce mémoire, je vous présente un plan global et régional de ma vision, car je crois que le projet de tramway doit se prendre dans l’ensemble des décisions gouvernementales touchant à la mobilité durable. Je connais aussi le domaine du transport en commun, car en 2011 j’ai été lobbyiste enregistré pour le monorail Trensquébec, composé de l’inventeur du moteur-roue (M. Pierre Couture), en collaboration avec l’ancien président du RTC (l’ex-conseiller Gilles Marcotte) et le promoteur du projet (l’ex député Jean-Paul Marchand). Espérant que certains de mes commentaires sauront vous être utiles.

Canada does not abandon roads when they are seldom used and expensive for taxpayers to maintain. We continue to subsidize them without due regard to their economic value because they are there. The C.D. Howe Institute has calculated that the public subsidy directed at Canada’s highways exceeds 30% of their construction and maintenance costs net of all tax and fee revenues. However, the same cannot be said for railways, where line abandonment continues despite the obvious benefits for freight and people movement, congestion reduction, social equity and greenhouse gas reduction. Consequently, the need for detailed consideration of modal equity in infrastructure investment has never been greater. Given that Canada’s infrastructure ranks between 17th and 22nd in terms of global efficiency, it is obvious that we need to investigate all possible methods of improvement.
