Even more road closures and detours will take place on the Turcot this weekend

You might want to reconsider going inbound and outbound this weekend. As work on the Turcot Interchange continues, Transports Québec has announced road closures and detours for this weekend.

Many of the closures will start tonight at midnight and persist through until the early hours of Monday morning.

We’ve highlighted some of the major roadworks to keep you moving on time:

We’d recommend staying home entirely.
