A CONSUMER BEHAVIOR APPROACH TO A COMMUTER TRAIN RESEARCH PROGRAM
The mission of the Montreal Transportation Agency (Agence metropolitaine de transport (AMT)) is to promote public transit with the goal of ensuring that people can travel within the Greater Montreal area more efficiently. The agency, which is responsible for planning, coordinating and promoting public transit services, has asked the Centre de Recherche en Gestion of the Universite du Quebec a Montreal (UQAM) to develop and implement a market research program in order to provide a better understanding of current and potential users' attitudes, behavioral intentions and behaviors with the view to increasing commuter train ridership. Another important objective of this research program was to estimate the market potential for existing and new commuter train lines.
