Installation of an additional noise barrier – Dunkirk Road

Nature of work : 

Following the most recent sound analyses conducted by Systra, an additional noise barrier composed of prefabricated panels will be installed at Dunkirk Road, approximately between Laird Boulevard and the arena.

Overnight work will be required as crews are unable to access the railway right-of-way during dynamic testing. This work will be used to secure the work area, so that daytime activities can continue at the same time as the tests.

Please note that pruning and cutting of trees on our right-of-way will be necessary in some places.
 

Impacts and mitigation measures : 

• Noise, vibrations, and dust may be generated by this work.
• Truck traffic may occur occasionally in the area of Jasper Avenue and Canora Road during the preparatory phase of the work, in order to access the site with the necessary equipment for its completion.
• Environmenta monitoring will be implemented by environmental experts. Teams will be made aware of the need to control their equipment in order to minimize noise and light disturbances as much as possible.
• Appropriate mitigation measures will be put in place when necessary.
