Boulevard Voltaire (regular canyon)

Rue de Rennes (regular canyon)

Avenue Leclerc (asymmetric canyon)

Conclusions Urban air quality: Strong spatial variability BTX diffusive samplers: Efficient multi-site monitoring tool Regular canyons: Semi-empirical models might suffice Complex urban locations: Advanced models required
