It's a long weekend, so that means an extra day of road closures for you to navigate.
Highway 15 will see a number of closures as crew prepare for a new highway configuration opening Tuesday (more on that below).
The northbound section of Highway 15 will be closed from Exit #58 (Highway 10/Downtown) to Gaétan-Laberge Blvd. from Friday at 11:59 P.M. to Tuesday at 5:00 A.M.
The same side of Highway 15 will also be closed between Exit #62 (de La Vérendrye) and the Édouard-Montpetit entrance during the same period.
The closures will mean the ramps connecting the 15 north to Highway 20 west, Highway 20 east to Highway 15 north, and Route 136 west to Highway 15 north will all be closed.
The ramps from the southbound Decarie Expressway to Highway 20 west and Route 136 east will also be off limits for the weekend.
On Highway 20, crews will close one lane between the Saint-Anne-de-Bellevue Blvd. entrance and the Saint-Pierre interchange. Work will also force the closure of Exit #63 for the 138 west/1st Ave./Mercier Bridge.
On the West Island, work on the Highways 13 and 40 interchange will close Highway 13 south overpass and the ramp connecting Highway 40 west to the 13 south.
Highway 40 east will be reduced to two lanes as it passes under Highway 13, while the service road will be down to one lane.
Work on the New Champlain Bridge will close Gaétan-Laberge Blvd. in both directions at the northbound Highway 15.
Starting Tuesday morning, regular users of Highway 15 north will notice a bit of a change. Starting September 4 motorists will be driving on a new stretch of Highway as they pass over the Lachine canal. Transport Quebec said signs will be posted to help you get through the new twists and turns.
