Upcoming 2015 Work Blitz on Mercier Bridge

04/28/2015

The Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke (MCK) wishes to inform road users of upcoming important work on the Mercier Bridge. The MCK has been advised in advance by the Jacques Cartier & Champlain Bridges Incorporated (JCCBI) that the 2015 Work Blitz will last approximately eight (8) weeks, scheduled to begin on Saturday, June 20th and lasting until Monday, August 17th.

It is important to note that during the Blitz, one lane in each direction on the Montreal-bound span will always be open to vehicles accessing the bridge. As in previous years a Truck Ban will be in effect during the weekday rush hours from 5am - 9am and 3pm - 7pm.

A few overnight full closures of the bridge will also be necessary for specific work. The dates will be announced once scheduled. 
 
The MCK, JCCBI and MTQ will be working closely together to ensure that information on bridge work is posted in as timely a manner as possible. Motorists can visit Quebec 511, www.mercierbridge.ca and www.kahnawake.com for the latest updates as they become available.
 
JCCBI will also launch an information campaign within the coming weeks.
 
The MCK reminds the public that works/closures on the Mercier Bridge are subject to change due to weather conditions, operational constraints or work progression, and that it does not take part in the scheduling or cancellation of such works.
