The Île-aux-Tourtes bridge, linking Senneville and Vaudreuil-Dorion on the Highway 40 (Félix-Leclerc), will be completely closed to traffic from Friday evening to Monday morning.
Transport Quebec says the closure is required for preparatory work to build the approaches to the new Île-aux-Tourtes bridge.
On Highway 40, between Senneville and Vaudreuil-Dorion:
Complete closure of Highway 40 westbound between Exit 41 – Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue/Boul. des Anciens-Combattants/ Highway 20 westbound/Île Perrot and the entrance from avenue Saint-Charles, from Friday, March 15, at 11:59 p.m., until Monday, March 18, at 5 a.m.
In the westbound direction, access to chemin Senneville will be maintained for users travelling to this area.
Complete closure of Highway 40 eastbound between Exit 35 – Vaudreuil-sur-le-Lac/Vaudreuil-Dorion/Av. St-Charles and the entrance from Boulevard des Anciens-Combattants, from Friday, March 15, at 11:59 p.m., until Monday, March 18, at 5 a.m.
The ramp leading from Highway 40 to the Île-aux-Tourtes bridge will be closed at the interchange with Highway 30. Users are invited to use Highway 20 and 30 instead.
On Monday March 18 at 5 a.m., the temporary configuration of two lanes towards Vaudreuil-Dorion and one towards Montreal will be restored on the bridge.
Detour roads will be marked with temporary signs. The Ministry advises road users who will have to travel in the area to allow extra time to reach their destination.
Work may be postponed due to adverse weather conditions or operational constraints. Before taking to the road, they recommend that you consult Québec 511.
