Québec City, Thursday, May 14, 2026 — This morning, at a media briefing in Québec City, The Jacques Cartier and Champlain Bridges Incorporated (JCCBI) gave a progress report on the work, inspections and studies it has undertaken on the Québec Bridge since 2025, along with a summary of plans for 2026. The Corporation reiterated that the condition of the bridge’s main structural members is generally acceptable, and that no issues have been found that would compromise its current use.

Massive structures like the Jacques Cartier Bridge or Bonaventure Expressway have many needs. They may require electrical repairs, paving, steel painting, and many other types of work. Most of these operations are planned in advance as part of JCCBI’s proactive asset management approach. Our Operations and Maintenance teams may also identify a need following an inspection or report, while user needs may change over time.
