Pont de l’Île-aux-Tourtes | Une « guerre de tranchées » pour livrer le mégachantier à temps
AI Article Summary

The reconstruction of the Pont de l’Île-aux-Tourtes in Montreal is well underway, with the construction manager confident of meeting the deadline despite common delays in infrastructure projects across Quebec. Two new bridges are being built, one to Vaudreuil-Dorion by 2026 and another to Montreal by 2027, with pedestrian and cycling paths to be added by 2028. The project, initially estimated at $1.4 billion, now stands at $2.3 billion, potentially rising. Current challenges include managing boat traffic around the construction site to ensure worker safety.
