Tunnel Louis-H.-La Fontaine : des citoyens incommodés par un bruit persistant
AI Article Summary

Residents in the Mercier-Est neighborhood of Montreal are troubled by persistent noise from the construction works in the Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine Tunnel. Despite noise mitigation efforts by the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility (MTMD), the noise from the ventilation system is expected to continue until 2026. Attempts including installing soundproof barriers have been made, but residents remain dissatisfied. A class-action lawsuit has been filed by several citizens seeking to halt the construction until a noise reduction solution is implemented.
