Repair of the Grenet rail structure

Nature of work

Within the context of work on the REM, the rail structure on Grenet Street, near the Bois-Franc Station, needs to be repaired. This work includes:

• Repair of concrete on the abutment walls and centre pier
• Injection of cracks
• Cleaning of the structure
• Painting

These repairs will have no impact on rail service. Traffic patterns will be disrupted on Grenet Street between May and July 2019 (details below).

Impacts and mitigation measures

The REM project office and NouvLR consortium’s aim is to mitigate impact on surrounding residents and ensure everyone’s safety by implementing all appropriate measures.

This work will generate noise, vibration and dust, and will require trucking. Mitigation measures will be implemented to minimize the impacts at the source. In order to ensure the project’s noise, vibration and air quality criteria are met, monitoring by environmental experts will take place throughout the work.
