The CRN is based on the road network from the Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI). Statistics Canada maintains the CRN to support the census and other activities. The relative position of road network features is important for census enumeration and reference purposes; therefore, topological accuracy takes precedence over absolute positional accuracy. The CRN does not contain street information required for route optimization. For example, data on one-way streets, dead-ends and other street obstacles are not included in the CRN. Consequently, this file is not recommended for engineering applications, emergency dispatching services, surveying or legal applications. The road network file contains street arcs with either 'true' address ranges, imputed address ranges, or no address range. Imputed address ranges are not meant to replace true address ranges for any purpose other than address geocoding. Thus, if the files are to be used for computer-aided dispatch or similar purposes (that require an address to be matched to a block or street), it may be necessary to supplement the file with local knowledge by updating existing true addresses and replacing imputed addresses. The limitations of the CRN should be recognized for uses other than the mapping, analysis and retrieval of census data.

Representation of the administrative arterial network of the City of Montreal from the geobase, as defined by the regulation identifying arterial and local road networks (02-003). The City's arterial network is under the responsibility of the city council. All other streets or roads that belong to the City of Montreal and that do not form the City's arterial network are the responsibility of the borough councils in which they are located.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Filamentary representation of straight segments commonly called “sections” whose digitization is generally done in street centers. A section is then a portion of road with homogeneous characteristics described mainly by the following attributes: the odonym, address ranges and a reference to the boundaries of the former municipalities (ex-cities).**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
