Notice to residents | Montréal: Major work to reinforce the metal structure of the Jacques Cartier Bridge, October 15, 2018
October 15, 2018 Jacques Cartier Bridge

Dear Neighbour,

 

In 2014, The Jacques Cartier and Champlain Bridges Incorporated (JCCBI) started a major program to reinforce the metal structure of the Jacques Cartier Bridge to extend its service life by at least 70 years.

 

Starting in mid-October, this major work will continue under the Jacques Cartier Bridge between Campion Street and Falardeau Street until the end of fall 2019. This program will involve work on the steel structure that will consist of removing rivets and reinforcing the bottom chords and gussets, which could have local impacts. JCCBI has established concrete requirements to mitigate noise and dust from the site and reduce hindrances to traffic.

 

Planned mitigation measures:

  • Installation of an acoustic enclosure that fully covers the work area
  • Work mainly done during the day
  • Night work that does not produce noise for the most part (except for the work site start-up and take-down)
  • Installation of listening and noise measurement stations in the work area
  • Use of equipment with white noise alarms
  • Use of special tools with noise reducers

As we are aware of the impacts of this work on people in the area, JCCBI created a Good Neighbourly Relations Committee to establish an open a dialogue with local residents and business owners. The next meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 14. Representatives from JCCBI, the monitoring team, the project contractor, the VilleMarie borough, and the SPVM will attend the meeting.
