EBN: improved bicycle paths on Rue Saint-Antoine and Rue Saint-Jacques
The Express Bike Network (EBN) bike lanes on Rue Saint-Antoine and Rue Saint-Jacques, between Avenue Atwater and Rue Guy, will be improved this spring. The work includes adding concrete protections, replacing traffic lights and repairing the road surface.
All about the project
When?
From June to August 2024
Where?
The project will be carried out in two phases
1) On Rue Saint-Antoine
2) On Rue Saint-Jacques
What?
- Adding concrete curbs at intersections between bike and vehicle lanes
- Building tree and plant planting areas
- Replacing traffic lights and street lamps
- Repaving traffic lanes, including bike paths
- Creating new ground markings (lines and pictograms)
Why?
- Facilitating west-east travel and access to downtown
- Improving the safety of cyclists, pedestrians and public transit
- Delineating the space reserved for each mode of transportation
Traffic
At all times, two lanes of vehicle traffic are maintained on Rue Saint-Antoine and one on Rue Saint-Jacques.
To limit the impact on traffic, complete night-time closures are planned during the paving work.
Futur development
The EBN will be connected to downtown with the creation of a two-way path on Rue Saint-Antoine, between Rue Guy and Rue du Square-Victoria, in Ville-Marie.
