Momentum Transport Canada has appointed Gabrielle Anne Reid as a Consultant in its Montreal office.
Gabrielle is a geography graduate and holds a Masters in Urban Planning from the Université Laval in Quebec City and Universidad de Barcelona in Spain, where she received two scholarships from the International Conference on Transport and Health for her work on the role of active mobility in Montreal. She has developed her experience as a transport planner working as a project manager at Vélo Québec, where she was also involved in the development of cycle-focused street designs.
In her role at Momentum Gabrielle will be responsible for the management of key projects in Canada and the US and will also support the development of the Momentum portfolio of work in Quebec.
Speaking about her appointment Gabrielle Anne Reid said: “Transport plays a vital role in cities as a vehicle for change to improve people’s quality of life. My aim as a transport planner is to enable the creation of social relationships and be an advocate for optimising sustainability across each of our various projects.”
Amélie Cossé, Director and Co-founder at Momentum Transport Canada added: “In the six months since our launch in Canada we have been involved in a number of exciting projects across North America – including many discussions on how transport planning can transform how public and shared spaces are used. We’re excited to welcome Gabrielle to the team and look forward to our clients benefitting from her experience.”
