Montreal, December 7, 2022 – While the development of new public transit infrastructures in Quebec has clearly not obtained the hoped-for consensus, the situation is not improving if we rely on the most recent report from the Centre for Productivity and Prosperity – Walter J. Somers Foundation. “Basically, the effectiveness of the public transit infrastructure development process is undermined by governance issues, explains Jacques Roy, Professor in the Department of Logistics and Operations Management at HEC Montréal and author of the study. Whether in Montreal, Quebec or Gatineau, the projects underway have not always been in line with the principles of governance that should normally govern their conduct, with the consequences we know today”.
