Background
My research area bridges between transportation and environmental analysis; and my main expertise is in modelling of road transport emissions and urban air quality as well as evaluating population exposure to air pollution. I am interested in capturing the interactions between the daily activities and travel patterns of urban dwellers and the generation and dispersion of traffic emissions in urban environments. I lead an active research group focusing on modelling traffic emissions and near-road air quality as well as near-road air pollution monitoring and characterization.

Automated vehicles (AV) will inevitably have an impact on the movement of people and goods. Assessing the effects of AVs on land use, congestion and the environment have become of great interest to researchers. This study explores the effects of AVs and vehicle electrification on greenhouse gas emissions using traffic microsimulation and emissions modeling. The driving behaviour parameters of a traffic simulation package, most relevant to AVs, are tested within the ranges deemed to be representative of potential AV operations. The effects of AVs are evaluated under both uninterrupted and interrupted traffic flow operating environments, as well as under high and low traffic demand. The main findings indicate that automated vehicles can bring positive changes in terms of emission and traffic flow performance. The significance of the impacts is more evident when AVs are tuned to more aggressive driving settings and especially under high traffic conditions in uninterrupted flow operations.
Transport plays a crucial role in urban development by providing access to education, markets, employment, recreation, health care and other key services. Currently, 82% of Canadian commuters drive to work while the remainder rely on public transit and active transportation. In Canada, on-road traffic accounts for 19% of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions and in Montreal, Canada’s second largest city, transportation accounts for 85% of NOx emissions. In urban areas, NOx often refers to nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) since the contribution of other nitrogen oxides is minimal. NOx concentrations are often used as a marker of road traffic emissions and NOx is always higher in the vicinity of roadways and lower further away. Exposure to traffic-related air pollution has been associated with various acute and chronic respiratory and cardiovascular effects and a number of studies have established positive associations between various cancers and exposure to NO2. Most of these assessments have relied on NO2 sampling rather than modelling. Certainly, measurements alone cannot be sufficient for exposure analysis in an urban environment. As a result, there is a need for analysis tools and models that can assist policy-makers in evaluating the impacts of transport policies on urban air quality and population exposure.
This research starts with developing and validating an integrated transportation emission dispersion modelling system to be ultimately used as a tool for evaluating the potential air quality impacts of on-road transportation in the Montreal metropolitan area. We observed that simulated concentrations were reasonably correlated with the observed data when detailed meteorological and dispersion characteristics are accounted for.
The second part of this research explores the possibility of using the transportation emission model, a component of the integrated modelling system, as a proxy to a land-use regression (LUR) model for deriving exposure. We noted similarities in the risks of breast and prostate cancer associated with NO2 derived from the LUR model and NOx derived from the emission model. In the third part of the research, since travel activity, land-use patterns, and the distribution of traffic often lead to inequities in the exposure to vehicle-related air pollutants, we investigated the inequity in the emissions of -and exposure to- traffic-related air pollution, based on LUR NO2 maps and mobility information. For this purpose, long term LUR NO2 maps are used to find the daily average NO2 concentration at the home location (static), and then compared to NO2 maps (dynamic) obtained from the integrated model. We also estimated exposures during travel to identify the contribution of travelling/commuting to daily exposure. The aim of this study is to understand how individuals’ mode choices, trajectories, and activity locations affect their exposure to traffic related air pollution. In addition, the individual-level analysis allowed us to identify individuals who reduce and those who increase their exposure during their daily trajectories and activities compared to the air quality at their home location. Our results showed that individuals who live in densely populated areas may be exposed to higher concentrations while generating low levels of emissions throughout their daily travel. Furthermore, results of this study indicate that using an integrated emission dispersion model for the assessment of individual exposure offers the opportunity for detailed, dynamic analysis of exposure to air pollution. The findings are useful for planning applications by using the model system to evaluate the effects of various transport policy scenarios on air pollution and exposure. In the last part of this research, a unique application was developed that supports decision makers by providing information about the current and future states of air pollution as a result of transit investments. For this purpose, the year 2008 was chosen as the base year and a future horizon year was chosen (2031). The integrated modelling system was used to evaluate the impact of an extensive regional transit improvement strategy revealing reductions in NO2 concentrations and exposures.
Near-road concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a known marker of traffic-related air pollution, were simulated along a busy urban corridor in Montreal, Quebec using a combination of microscopic traffic simulation, instantaneous emission modeling, and air pollution dispersion. In order to calibrate and validate the model, measurements of NO2 were conducted mid-block along four segments of the corridor. The four segments were chosen to be consecutive and yet exhibiting variability in road configuration and built environment characteristics. Roadside NO2 measurements were also paired with on-site meteorological data collected using a portable meteorological station. In addition, traffic volumes, composition, and routing decisions were collected using video-cameras located at upstream and downstream intersections. Dispersion of simulated emissions was conducted for eight time slots and under a range of meteorological conditions using three different models with vastly different dispersion algorithms (OSPM, CALINE 4, and SIRANE). While the use of OSPM and SIRANE led to simulated NO2 concentrations closer to measured concentrations on road segments with buildings on both sides, CALINE 4 led to a better match with measured data when the built environment involves open terrain.
The objective of this thesis is to validate land-use regression models developed based on fixed and mobile measurements of ambient nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and ozone (O3) concentrations. For this purpose, a mobile monitoring campaign was conducted in the summer of 2015 in Montreal. The pollutant levels of 1,411 road segments were measured. Using data from repeated visits at each segment (N_vis), various land-use regression (LUR) models were developed based on segments with N_vis greater than or equal to 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20. Exposure surfaces for the island of Montreal based on these models were also developed.
Previously, during the summer of 2014, a monitoring campaign had taken place at 76 fixed locations spread around Montreal using the same sensors to measure the same two pollutants. LUR models as well as associated exposure surfaces were developed, and compared to the results from summer 2015.
We observed that the exposure surfaces resulting from both campaigns were highly dissimilar, and several possible explanations can be suggested. LUR models based on segments with a small number of repeated observations are associated with poor coefficients of determination (R²) and the exposure surfaces derived from them are poorly correlated with the summer 2014 exposure surface. On the other hand, restricting the LUR models to the road segments with N_vis greater than or equal to 16 leads to higher R² values at the expense of poor predictive capability outside of the sample mainly due to the fact that as N_vis increases, the variability in segment attributes within the sub-sample decreases as those segments become more concentrated in the downtown area.
This study highlights the sensitivity of LUR models based on mobile monitoring campaigns to the number of visits per segment and to the location of the segments and stresses the importance of careful design of outdoor data collection campaigns.
This research is motivated by the importance of reducing transit bus emissions in urban areas which can only be achieved after understanding the factors affecting transit bus emissions and exploring the effects of various emission reduction strategies. We started with understanding the emissions estimation methods currently embedded within emission inventory models followed by a validation of the most commonly used model in North America, the Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator (MOVES), in a local context by collecting instantaneous bus speed and passenger ridership data across a variety of transit routes (downtown and suburban/highway) and bus types (standard, articulated, old, and new). We then tested the effects of incorporating local drive cycles into the MOVES model illustrating the gains in accuracy that are achieved by replacing default drive-cycles with local ones. We analyzed the spatial and temporal variably of transit bus emissions across the island of Montreal and investigated the isolated and combined effects of different factors affecting emissions (including the level of congestion, roadway grade, passenger ridership, and traffic variability). We also investigated the reduction potential of different fuels including ultra-low sulfur diesel, compressed natural gas; and of transit service operational improvements including transit signal priority, queue jumper lane, and relocation of bus stops considering a wide combination of congestion, roadway grade, and passenger ridership. Finally, a corridor study was conducted to capture the changes in emissions as a result of the implementation of different transit service improvement strategies including smart card, express bus service, and reserved bus lane. In order to assess whether the emission reductions observed for transit buses could translate to passenger cars, we estimated passenger vehicle emissions in a large Montreal neighbourhood and investigated the potential of different emission reduction strategies. This thesis addresses critical gaps in the current knowledge of transit bus emissions, providing useful information to transit planners when implementing emission reduction strategies or modifying existing transit facilities.
This thesis aims at developing air pollution exposure surfaces for nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and ozone (O3) in Montreal, Canada, using land use regression techniques, and thus capturing the effects of the built environment, traffic, and meteorology on the spatial variability of these two pollutants. Another objective of this work is to assess the potential of new handheld air quality sensors at capturing near-road air quality. To reach these objectives, we ran a data collection campaign on the island of Montreal, spanning 3 seasons (spring, summer and fall) in 2014. In total, 76 sites were identified and which represent the range of land-use and built environment characteristics in Montreal. Each site was visited at least 6 times throughout the campaign whereby measurements occurred for 30 minutes (per visit) with two O3 and two NO2 monitors. We also collected variables related to traffic and street characteristics on-site to assess their relationship with air pollution, and gathered a set of land-use and built environment characteristics at several buffer sizes around the sites (50, 100, 200, 300, 500, 750, 1000 m) using geographical information systems (GIS). The land use regression models we developed achieved R2 values of 0.86 for NO2 and 0.92 for O3, when corrected for regional meteorology. Based on the coefficients of the NO2 and O3 models, we developed an exposure surface for each pollutant by applying the model in areas where air pollution data were not available. Our NO2 surface is strongly correlated with older surfaces previously developed for Montreal, indicating that the spatial variability of air pollution has remained stable. Our O3 model is to our knowledge the first of its kind and for this reason cannot be compared with previous results. The relationship between NO2 and O3 in our models, confirms our theoretical understanding of the behaviour of these pollutants. The exposure we generated in this study can be used for epidemiological studies in evaluating the associations between traffic related air pollution and health.
The objective of this thesis is to identify factors related to meteorology and the built environment and its influence on near-roadway concentrations of ultrafine particles (UFP) in the context of restaurants and bars located within public open air spaces. The question that must be posed is how are variations in weather, traffic, on-site building characteristics impacting levels of UFP concentration, which in turn may produce adverse health effects for restaurant patrons as well as individuals working within hospitality industries.
To facilitate this study, a UFP monitoring campaign was organized and conducted during the months of May to July to measure at eight selected sites situated in Montreal, Canada. The eight study sites, chosen to reflect varying land use compositions and building characteristics, were each visited four times during lunch and dinner hours, where a site would be visited a total of two times (once per time period) during the weekday, and two times (once per time period) during the weekend. This campaign used meteorological information collected at the Montreal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport and at an automated weather station reporting from downtown Montreal. Traffic-related variables were derived from manual vehicle counts carried out at each study location, and the analysis of land use and other built characteristics relied on geographic information systems (GIS) data extracted from Transportation Research at McGill (TRAM), a transportation research group based at McGill University.
The investigation following the conclusion of the data collection campaign began by developing linear mixed effect models centred on variables relating to meteorology, traffic, site characteristics, and temporal factors. This data enables the validation of trends already defined in previous academic literature as well as to identify key findings that are contrary to intuitive hypotheses in the context of this study. Of note, meteorological effects such as temperature, wind speed, and wind direction relative to the orientation of the street are proven to possess inverse relationships with UFP. Homogeneity of land use is also an influential parameter and of significance with respect to this study of mixed use microenvironments. Furthermore, traffic-based predictors, most notably that of total diesel vehicles, contributed marginally to their concentrations.
The conclusions reached from this study, along with what is already known about ultrafine particles, allows for dialogue pertaining to optimizing the effectiveness of mixed use neighbourhoods from a health perspective in the context of open air patios. Provisional recommendations to improve the decision-making processes involved with planning and engineering such neighbourhoods are discussed and is critical for understanding the health and well-being of urban residents.
This study aimed at capturing the determinants of near-road concentrations of ultrafine particles (UFP) using linear mixed-effects models, investigating the effects of meteorology, built environment, and traffic. In addition, the differences in the levels of UFP between both sides of the road were investigated. To reach these objectives, field measurements were conducted on 16 weekdays in the months of March and April 2015, along Papineau Avenue, a high-volume street in Montreal, Canada. Four sites were identified varying in land use, building height, and road characteristics. Air quality measurements were conducted at each location (on both sides of the road) for two consecutive hours, at four different times during the day and repeated four times, leading to a total of 16 visits per location. Traffic volume and composition was also recorded. On-site meteorological variables including wind speed, wind direction, temperature and relative humidity were collected using a portable weather station. Linear mixed-effects models with random intercept were developed for both dependent variables: the natural logarithm of the mean UFP concentration and the difference in UFP concentrations between two sides of the road. Lower temperatures and wind speeds were associated with increased UFP concentrations. Winds orthogonal to the road tended to increase UFP concentrations as well as the differences between both sides of the road. Finally, built environment variables such as the presence of open areas and buildings on both sides of the road, had a positive influence on the difference between UFP on the two sides.
This thesis seeks to understand how the built environment and surrounding land use affect variations in near-roadway air pollution. In particular, two air pollutants are investigated: ultrafine particles (UFP) and black carbon (BC). Specifically, the study explores this question in the context of urban cycling. That is, how do factors such as traffic, buildings, and cycling infrastructure affect the concentration of air pollution to which cyclists are exposed?These answers are sought by way of a large-scale environmental monitoring campaign on the Island of Montreal during the summer of 2012. The campaign is comprised of two components: a mobile measurement portion whereby bicycles equipped with air pollution monitoring equipment cycle across roughly 500 km of unique roadway collecting UFP and BC concentrations, paired with global positioning system (GPS) data which allowed air pollution levels to be associated with the street on which they were collected—and a fixed site monitoring portion whereby research assistants measured pollution and counted traffic volumes and composition for set intervals of time at 73 locations. The overarching objective was to explain the variations in air pollution concentration by meteorological and built environment data, using land-use regression (LUR) analysis techniques. The mobile analysis relies primarily on geographic information systems (GIS) based land-use data while the fixed site analysis relies primarily on field measurements.Several investigations follow from this general data collection campaign. From the fixed site data a LUR model is developed based on meteorological factors, vehicular volumes and compositions, and built environment characteristics of the roadway corridor. These data also form the basis of a secondary investigation which explains the differences in UFP levels on opposite sides of the same street using wind, urban canyon, and traffic characteristics. Notable findings include support for some meteorological and urban canyon effects on air pollution, the relevance of both vehicular volumes as well as the truck component thereof.Two investigations arise from the mobile data collection campaign. The first attempts to explain the variations in air pollution using meteorological, land-use, and roadway characteristics, including results from a mesoscopic traffic simulation. The second seeks to understand how the nature of cycling infrastructure and cycling network design affect cyclists’ exposure to pollution. In addition to the effects captured in the fixed site analysis, relevant observations include the strong effects of nearby highways, especially for BC, and nearby restaurants, especially for UFP. The latter investigation from the mobile campaign shows that cycling facilities along major roads tend to have higher levels of pollution, however separated cycling infrastructure did reduce exposure to BC, perhaps owing in part from their greater distance from the street centerline. However the strongest reductions in air pollution were observed on multi-use trails, which typically run through parks and are located at substantial distances from the street.Together, these investigations use a novel methodological framework to unravel the interactions between cycling, the built environment, land use, traffic, and air pollution.
Road transport has a tremendous impact on local urban regions as well as global planetary health. This impact is especially great given the large quantities of greenhouse gases and local air pollutants released across the world, quantities that continue to increase. For metropolitan regions, reductions in traffic-related air pollution are paramount. Which baseline is used and which strategies should be implemented are both vital questions in this regard. Integrated transport and emissions models are important tools that aid metropolitan planners in answering those questions. A regional traffic assignment model has been connected to a detailed emission processor for the Montreal metropolitan region. The road transport model contains details on all private driving trips across a standard 24-hr workday, including congested link speeds and stochastic path distributions. Meanwhile, the emissions processor incorporates local vehicle registry data and Montreal-specific ambient conditions in the estimation of both running and start emissions. Outputs include hourly link-level and trip-level emissions for greenhouse gases, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides. Three research studies were then explored that were anchored by the integrated transport and emissions model. The first involved testing model sensitivity to variations in input data and randomness. The second study was aimed at understanding the land-use and socioeconomic determinants of traffic-related air pollution generation and exposure. The third study encompassed an equity analysis of social disadvantage, traffic-related air pollution generation and exposure. Major findings include evidence that: start emissions and accurate vehicle registry data have the biggest impact on accurate regional emission inventories; neighbourhoods closer to downtown tend to be low emitters while having high exposures to traffic-related air pollution, while the opposite is true for neighbourhoods in the suburbs and periphery of the region; and marginalized neighbourhoods with high social disadvantage tend to have the highest exposure levels in the region, while at the same time generating some of the lowest quantities of traffic-related air pollution. These findings support the claim that traffic is creating environmental justice issues at the metropolitan level.
This thesis focuses on the development of a microscopic traffic simulation, emission and dispersion modeling system which aims at quantifying the effects of different types of traffic calming measures on vehicle emissions both at a link-level and at a network-level and on air quality at a corridor level using a scenario analysis. The study area is set in Montréal, Canada where a traffic simulation model for a dense urban neighborhood is extended with capabilities for microscopic emission estimation and dispersion modeling. The results indicate that on average, isolated calming measures increase carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by 1.50%, 0.33% and 1.45%, respectively across the entire network. Area-wide schemes result in a percentage increase of 3.84% for CO2, 1.22% for CO, and 2.18% for NOx. Along specific corridors where traffic calming measures were simulated, increases in CO2 emissions of up to 83% are observed. These increases are mainly associated with a change in vehicle drive-cycles through increased accelerations and decelerations. The results for air quality modeling suggest on average NO2 levels increase between 0.1% and 10% with respect to the base case. A high positive correlation of 0.7 between segment emissions of NOx and concentrations of NO2 is observed. Also, the effects of wind speed and direction are investigated in this thesis. The results show that higher wind speeds decrease NO2 concentrations on both sides of the roadway while winds orthogonal to the road increase the difference between concentrations on the leeward and windward sides with the leeward side experiencing higher levels. The effect of different measures on traffic volumes is also investigated and moderate decreases in areas that have undergone traffic calming are observed. Finally, the results show that speed bumps result in higher emission levels and poorer near-roadway air quality than speed humps.
