Last week, during an interview with Radio-Canada, the Liberal leader let it be known that she could abandon this third link project if studies showed its uselessness.

However, on Saturday, questioned to know if this tram would be done at all costs regardless of the conclusion of the studies which would be carried out under a Liberal government, she replied that “it is absolutely necessary to improve, absolutely to improve mobility in Quebec”. “And yes, it goes through an east-west, north-south tramway and it goes through the arrival to the south of Quebec, absolutely, to Lévis,” she added.

The project would be done regardless of the estimate of the invoice? “The study will allow us at that time to say what would be the best way to move forward with this. » With a bridge or a tunnel.

Dominique Anglade challenges François Legault to unveil the studies on his Quebec-Lévis highway tunnel project by the first leaders’ debate on September 15. She accuses him of “hiding” them and of lacking transparency.

“Studies belong to all Quebecers and have all been paid for. Why can’t we have access to these studies so that we can make informed decisions? she pleaded.

However, it does not quantify its own commitment to the Québec-Lévis tramway. “The studies will allow us to answer these questions,” she said.

His project is an extension of the future tramway in Quebec in several phases. We would serve the airport, Lebourgneuf, Charlesbourg then Lévis.
