Montreal infrastructure and road disruptions

Overview

In late August 2026, Montreal scheduled major road closures for infrastructure repairs. The Décarie Expressway northbound direction was set to close between Jean-Talon and Rue Paré for beam repairs on the Des Jockeys and Ferrier street overpasses. During this period, the Samuel De Champlain Bridge was also scheduled to close toward Montreal.

By early September 2026, further significant disruptions were planned for the Greater Montreal area. These included complete northbound closures and partial southbound closures of the Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine Tunnel, reduced capacity on the Victoria Bridge, and single-lane traffic on the A-20 between Belœil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire.
