La forme urbaine conditionne la demande de transport dans une agglomération et, inversement, les conditions de transport influencent la forme urbaine. Cet article examine cette relation en présentant une analyse comparative d'un certain nombre d'indicateurs d'étalement urbain et de motorisation pour Montréal et 11 autres agglomérations, pendant la période 1960-1980. Dans toutes les villes étudiées, l'étalement urbain et la motorisation apparaissent comme des tendances lourdes. Dans le cas de Montréal, ces mêmes tendances ont été observées au cours de la dernière décennie, malgré une croissance relativement faible de la population et l'on doit s'attendre à ce qu'elles se poursuivent.The urban form conditions travel demand in an urban area and, at the opposite, the transportation conditions influence the urban form. This article examines this relationship by presenting a comparative analysis of various indicators of urban sprawl and motorization for Montréal and 11 other urban areas, for the 1960-1980 period. In all the cases studied, the urban sprawl and the motorization appeared as heavy trends. In the Montréal case, these trends have been observed during the last decade, in spite of a relatively weak population growth and it is expected that they will persist in the future
