    Current numbers vs a study from 1993.

    I would also ask you to point out where I said that cars were any better… Although let’s be clear, cars produce the same level of noise at speeds/RPM that are of no concern in urban areas, which is not the case for the REM as it produces that noise in urban areas.

      Doesn’t the REM follow the 30, over the Champlain, then shunt over to the train tracks that are parallel to the Bonaventure?

      Those are already very noisy areas, no?

        And the REM is still noisier than what people were already used to.

        People are complaining in Griffintown, Pointe-Saint-Charles ans l’Île-des-sœurs.
