Users travelling toward La Prairie are invited to take the reverse route. Using the Chateauguay Exit of the bridge (ramp 3), the users will travel toward Laprairie by taking the exit (Saint-Isodore Road) of the road 207. Then, the users will take the service road 138 and 132 direction Laprairie.

Wednesday, June 2, 2010 from 8:00 PM to Thursday, June 3, at 8:00 AM:

    
    -   Closure of one lane on the Honoré-Mercier Bridge in the direction
