Projet structurant de l’Est | Un tramway pour une fraction du prix
C’est un tramway qui sera finalement recommandé au gouvernement Legault pour remplacer le REM de l’Est plutôt que le tracé souterrain à 36 milliards proposé l’été dernier, a appris La Presse. La facture serait réduite au moins de moitié pour atteindre environ 13 milliards.
