Eastbound traffic on Highway 40 will be fully closed this weekend as the province carries out construction work. The closure runs Friday, July 10 at 11:30 p.m. through Monday, July 13 at 5 a.m., affecting the stretch between the Côte-de-Liesse interchange and Highway 15 (des Laurentides).
Traffic will be diverted onto the Côte-de-Liesse service road. The province is urging drivers to use alternative routes: Highway 13 (Chomedey) northbound, Highway 440 (Jean-Noël-Lavoie) eastbound, and Highway 15 (des Laurentides) southbound.
Additional entrance and ramp closures will be in effect during the same window, including the entrance from Cavendish Boulevard, the ramp from A-520 East to A-40 East, and multiple exits from Highway 40 eastbound. High congestion is expected. Quebec's Ministry of Transport advises consulting Québec 511 before travelling, and notes that work may be rescheduled or cancelled due to weather.
