An even more difficult weekend is coming: in addition to the complete closure of the A25 South for preparatory work for the major repair of the Louis-Hippolyte-la-Fontaine tunnel, the Honoré-Mercier bridge will be obstructed at the end of next week.
Posted at 5:30 p.m.
The Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility provides for a complete closure of the A25 towards the South Shore between exit 5 and the entrance to Île Charron, from 11:30 p.m. Friday until 5 a.m. Monday. All weekend, Souligny Avenue will be prohibited in both directions, between Dickson and Honoré-Beaugrand streets.
The A25 South will also be closed between exit 4 towards downtown Montreal and the entrance from Île Charron, every evening from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m., until October 28.

Closure of the A25 South Souligny sector
Preparatory work is continuing for the new track configuration in the Louis-Hippolyte-la-Fontaine tunnel. As of October 31, only one lane will remain open on the A25 South, and two will be open towards Montreal, until November 2025.
Hindrances on the Honoré-Mercier Bridge
In addition to the closures in the tunnel, the Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité durable has announced partial obstructions on the Honoré-Mercier bridge. Only one lane per direction will be open on Sunday, October 30 between Kahnawake and Montreal for slab repair.
Traffic on the Samuel-De Champlain and Jacques-Cartier bridges had already increased last weekend, while the Honoré-Mercier bridge was not obstructed. The ministry encourages the population to get information from Québec 511 for travel planning.
