These works will be carried out at night to minimize inconvenience to our Community members, and businesses. The work is schedule to take place from Sunday to Thursday. Working hours are Sunday to Wednesday from 8pm to 4:30am and Thursday from 10pm to 4:30am.  The works will start at St. Francis Boulevard in Chateauguay.
