Chaudière Crossing Closed Overnight to Motorists 25 August

Public Services and Procurement Canada

Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) wishes to advise users that the Chaudière Crossing will be fully closed to motorists to accommodate rehabilitation work as part of the Southern Structures Renewal Project, during the following period:

During this period, motorists will be detoured via the Portage Bridge, and heavy trucks will be directed to the Macdonald-Cartier Bridge. Local traffic will be permitted between Alexandre-Taché Boulevard and Zaida Eddy Private. Appropriate signage will be in place to guide road users through the detour routes.

The crossing will remain open to pedestrians. Cyclists will be directed along a signed detour route via Chaudière Private and the Ottawa River Pathway.

This temporary closure is necessary to ensure the safety of users and workers while rehabilitation activities are carried out.

The schedule may change depending on weather conditions.

PSPC encourages users to exercise caution when travelling on the crossing and thanks them for their patience and cooperation.
