AV整氈窒

 

AV整氈窒 Transportation Collaboratory (DalTRAC) is a multi-disciplinary research facility dedicated to the advancement of transportation engineering and planning research and practice at AV整氈窒 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The research unit aims to contribute to transportation studies, planning, and analysis at local, regional and national levels.

DalTRAC was awarded $3.6 million through Canada's Climate Action and Awareness Fund (CAAF) for a new project aimed at monitoring emissions at a local level to inform future climate mitigation strategies. To support such a large, federally funded research project the Climate Action Research for Transportation (CART) Network was established. Learn more about the CART Network

What Does DalTRAC Do?

Over the last decade,泭DalTRAC泭has taken part in completing numerous travel activity surveys for both the Halifax Regional Municipality (HaliTRAC) and the province of Nova Scotia (NovaTRAC) to learn more about households' daily travel activity, including when, where and how they travel. These projects offered partnership building opportunities as well as have acted as a benchmark for travel behaviour information and transportation modelling. More importantly, they have established a survey methodology, survey tools and data which will be useful for the upcoming work funded by the Canada's Climate Action and Awareness Fund (CAAF) over the next five years.泭Learn more about DalTRAC's projects.
