Construction work on a pedestrian bridge linking the De la Savane metro station to the Royalmount mall development will require the Décarie Expressway to close completely overnight from Friday, Feb. 2 to 3, 2024.
These interventions are carried out by the company Carbonleo – as part of the private Royalmount urban development project.
Quebec’s transport department informs road users that Highway 15 north will be completely closed between the Turcot and Décarie interchanges.

Drivers are urged to consult the Québec 511 before hitting the road.
