Mercier Bridge: inspections continues for another week

04/01/2011

The Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke would like to inform motorists that the Ministère des Transports will continue inspection work on the Kahnawà:ke-bound lanes of the Mercier Bridge for at least one more week.

The work schedule is as follows:

- Friday 10pm to Sunday 9pm: Kahnawà:ke-bound lanes closed with traffic detoured to the Montreal-bound span with one lane in each direction.

- Monday to Friday from 7am to 7pm: inspection work under the bridge. No obstruction to traffic.

- Tuesday to Friday from 7pm to 5am: Kahnawà:ke-bound lanes closed with traffic detoured to the Montreal-bound span with one lane in each direction.

The results of these inspections will identify and prioritize repairs required on the bridge to eventually allow the return of heavy vehicles on the Kahnawà:ke-bound lanes. Inspections began this past February.
