Crossing of the REM in the Technoparc sector

Nature of work:

As part of the construction of the REM overhead structure in the West Island, road obstructions are planned in the Technoparc sector starting in June 2022. This operation will allow for the installation of the REM deck and will be carried out in four phases over a period of approximately one month.

Complete closure of the following sections

*During night closures, traffic lanes remain open during the day

Phase 1 – June 5 to 10, 2022*: Nighttime obstruction of Hymus Boulevard at the intersection of the REM route

During this phase of the work, Hymus Boulevard will be closed to traffic, one direction at a time. The work will begin with the closure of Hymus Boulevard westbound. Once this work is completed, Hymus Boulevard eastbound will be closed to traffic. Detour routes will be posted on site as work progresses.

Phase 2 – Ongoing until July 5, 2022 * : lane closures with contraflow on Alfred Nobel Boulevard

Reduction in the number of traffic lanes with lanes always maintained in both directions.

Phase 3 - June 21 to July 5, 2022: closure of Alfred-Nobel Boulevard between Marie-Curie Avenue and Frederick-Banting Street

Detour road: During this phase of the work, access to businesses south of Marie-Curie Avenue will be via Frederick-Banting Street.
 

Phase 4 - July 4 to 7, 2022 : night closure of the east side access to the roundabout at the intersection of Alfred-Nobel Boulevard and Marie-Curie Avenue

Impacts and Mitigation Measures:

The objective of the REM project office and the NouvLR consortium is to mitigate the impacts on local residents and to ensure the safety of all, by implementing the appropriate measures.

• Noise, obstructions, vibrations and dust could be generated by this work.
• Lane closures are planned in the area, depending on the progress of the REM crossing over Alfred-Nobel Boulevard.
• Access to businesses will remain open at all times during these two phases of work.
