Proposed Montreal traffic solutions

Quebec has made a $110 million proposal to decrease traffic in Montreal.

The proposal involves ideas such as forty kilometres of reserved bus lanes and a fifty per cent capacity increase for commuter trains.

Quebec's mission began last week when the city of Montreal announced the postponing of certain roadwork projects.
