Montreal Traffic Alert: Construction & REM Tweaks

0:00No major highway shutdowns hitting this long weekend in Montreal, but keep your eyes peeled for street work and rim tweaks that could slow you down. Solony Avenue stays closed. Eastbound from Dixon to honor Abo Grant starting 11 p.m. Thursday until 5 a.m. Tuesday blocking ramps to highway 25. Though the highway itself stays open by a Hoshalaga or Notre Dame, Viger Avenue sees lane reductions between Route 136 and Wolf for water main repairs with two lanes open in morning rush and just one, otherwise. Meanwhile the REM steps up service on the full Du Montaniers line after 9 p.m. Starting Monday, pushing final departures to 12.48 a.m. Saturdays in 12.29 a.m. other nights. That progress hits a snag next week though. With early closures and late starts those two weekends after first trains at 7.30 a.m. April 11th, 12th, 18th, 19th and last runs by 10.13 p.m. from Du Montaniers 10.40 p.m.

1:05from Brossard on the 17th and 18th. Mark your calendars for next weekend April 10th to 13th when Ville Marie and Viger tunnels fully close to demo part of the St. Urbain. Overpass eastbound exit stop after Robert Barossa, westbound reopen at Lucie in La Lierre. Ongoing headaches persist too, like Highway 10's permanent eastbound exit, the reclosure, Aileox tortoises down to 5 lanes alternating directions. In spots like Barry Street shut until November 20th, 20th, 20th, 27th. Plan alternate routes, check stm.info for busty tours and stay smooth out there dodging these construction traps all spring.
