This research is intended to improve the planning, design and operations of Canada's transportation systems. Governments throughout Canada and more generally North America are considering major investments in public transportation systems as a way to reduce congestion; improve environmental conditions; provide lower cost transportation choices to all members of society; and to help revitalize urban areas. The way in which decision makers evaluate possible investments in transportation systems is with Travel Forecasting Models. These models try to predict how travelers will behave - what trips will be made and by what mode - if new transit systems are built or if existing systems are upgraded.

这项研究旨在改善加拿大交通系统的规划、设计和运营。 整个加拿大和更广泛的北美政府正在考虑对公共交通系统进行重大投资，以减少拥挤;改善环境条件;为社会所有成员提供低成本的交通选择;并帮助振兴城市地区。 决策者评估交通系统可能投资的方式是使用出行预测模型。 这些模型试图预测旅行者将如何行为-什么旅行将作出和通过什么模式-如果新的交通系统建成或如果现有的系统升级。
