  • Saturday, February 12, at 7 am to Monday, February 14, at 6 am, the Ottawa- and Gatineau-bound lanes will be closed to vehicular traffic, as well as the boardwalk.

During this period, pedestrians and cyclists will be directed to the centre lane.

PSPC also wishes to advise motorists that the Alexandra Bridge will remain closed to vehicular traffic, except on:

  • Monday, February 14, to Friday, February 18, from 6 to 10 am, during which time the Ottawa-bound lane will be open to vehicular traffic.

The boardwalk will be accessible to pedestrians and cyclists.
