Objectives• To establish a database of motor vehicle related toxic substance
concentrations and PM2.5 mass concentrations at nose-level along a busy downtown street in the two extremes of weather (Summer and Winter) in a typical Canadian city.
• To compare and correlate the short term (2 hour periods of peak traffic volume) ambient concentrations at nose-level with the regional air quality monitoring data of longer duration (24 hours) measured at other urban sites and in-vehicle concentrations on typical commuting trips.
• To determine the contribution of motor vehicle traffic to the measured toxic substance concentrations and fine particulate matter by comparisons with motor vehicle emission data.

Summary of experimental work
1994 Summer Roadside, 2 stations– 2 hour sampling periods (7:30-9:30, 11:30-13:30,15:30-17:30)– 6 L SUMMA canisters for VOCS (2 stations)– 2,4 DNPH cartridges for carbonyl compounds (2 stations)– TSP mass, SOF, and trace metals (3 stations)– PAH on TSP and PUF cartridges (stations)
2000 Winter and Summer
Roadside– 2, 6, 24 hour roadside sampling periods – 6 L SUMMA canisters for VOCs, Tenax cartridges for SVOCs– 2,4 DNPH cartridges for carbonyl compounds
– PM2.5 mass, EC/OC, and trace metals
Rooftop (limited)– VOC and SVOC
Passenger car and transit bus (a.m and p.m. commuting trips) – 1 L SUMMA canisters, DNPH cartridges

In-vehicle sampling program for VOC and carbonyl compounds
• 15 Winter days (January-February 2000)• 15 Summer days (July-August 2000)• 2 sampling periods, 8-9 A.M. and 4-5 P.M. • Routes and vehicles:
– Bus: 30-45 min route along main “downtown” streets, different bus for different sessions
– Car: 30-45 commute along an arterial route that combines rural and urban settings. ~ 10 year old vehicles Nissan (Winter) and Aries (Summer)
