Why is this necessary?

The aging underground infrastructures (water mains and sewers) on certain sections of Rue Peel Street were recently replaced. However, there are still repairs to carry out on other parts of the street. This is a unique opportunity to redevelop public space in a more unified way and provide residents with a more pleasant and user-friendly space.

The project also provides an opportunity to showcase Montréal’s rich millennial history and encourage safer, more enjoyable active mobility and public transit.

History of developments

Some work was also done on rue Peel before the begining of the project. For a detailed description of the completed interventions, see:
