Canada is investing massively in public transport infrastructure to support sustainable transport systems across the country. The benefits associated with public transport investments are intrinsically linked to the environment in which they are implemented, notably with respect to land use systems and active transport infrastructure. To capitalize on these investments and ensure a substantial mode shift from private car to public and active transport, Canadians need to learn from experiences around the world that have succeeded in supporting sustainable mobility through integrated land use and transport planning. The Netherlands has been pioneering integrated land use and transport planning. Its success lies mainly in a coordinated planning strategy that integrates transit-oriented development together with an extensive cycling network. Therefore, the goal of the proposed project is to collaborate with experts from the Netherlands to develop methodological approaches to measure the performance of public transport networks, considering the interactions between public transport, land use, and cycling infrastructure. Using a set of complementary land use, transport and bikeability indicators, this project will seek to classify and characterize public transport station areas in the Canadian context, based on the planning approaches implemented in the Netherlands. A comparative analysis between Rotterdam and Montreal will be conducted to learn from the best practices from the Netherlands. By developing a strong collaboration with a Dutch research group, this project will contribute to developing a cutting-edge Canadian expertise and transforming the transport engineering practice in Canada. The project will train highly qualified personnel that will learn and share how to successfully bridge the gap between land use and transport planning. It will support the effective implementation of public transport systems in Canadian metropolitan regions, thereby contributing to Canada's economic development and climate change efforts, while improving the quality of life and social inclusion of Canadians.

加拿大正在对公共交通基础设施进行大规模投资，以支持全国的可持续交通系统。与公共交通投资相关的好处与实施这些投资的环境有内在联系，特别是在土地使用系统和积极的交通基础设施方面。为了利用这些投资，并确保模式从私家车向公共和主动交通的重大转变，加拿大人需要学习世界各地通过综合土地利用和交通规划成功支持可持续机动性的经验。荷兰一直是土地利用和交通综合规划的先驱。它的成功主要在于一种协调的规划战略，该战略将以交通为导向的发展与广泛的自行车网络结合在一起。因此，拟议项目的目标是与荷兰的专家合作，考虑到公共交通、土地使用和自行车基础设施之间的相互作用，制定衡量公共交通网络性能的方法。该项目将根据荷兰实施的规划方法，利用一套补充的土地使用、交通和可骑自行车指标，根据加拿大的情况对公共交通站点区域进行分类并确定其特点。将对鹿特丹和蒙特利尔进行比较分析，以学习荷兰的最佳做法。通过与荷兰研究小组开展强有力的合作，该项目将有助于发展加拿大的尖端专业知识，并改变加拿大的运输工程实践。该项目将培训高素质的人员，他们将学习和分享如何成功地弥合土地使用和交通规划之间的差距。它将支持在加拿大大都市地区有效实施公共交通系统，从而促进加拿大的经济发展和气候变化努力，同时提高加拿大人的生活质量和社会包容性。
