Weekend traffic Sept. 20-23, 2024: Île-aux-Tourtes bridge closed again

Also: Mercier Bridge will be partially closed Friday night into Saturday.

Major planned road closures expected this weekend in and around Montreal:

Highway 40

The highway will be closed eastbound at St-Charles Ave. and westbound at Anciens-Combattants Blvd., though access to Senneville Rd. will be maintained for westbound traffic. The ramp toward Highway 40 east at the interchange with Highway 30 will be closed to redirect traffic to Highway 20.

The tolls on Highway 30 will be suspended in both directions during this closure. When it reopens Monday, lanes on the bridge and its approaches will be deviated, and the westbound highway entrance near the Pine St. overpass will be closed for the next year. The number of lanes open on the bridge will be unchanged — one in each direction, and a third changing direction for weekday rush hours.

Route 138
