Due to the exceptional weather situation, here is some important information.

Status of Municipal Facilities (March 12)

  • The bibliothèque de Saint-Pierre is closed due to a power failure.

All other buildings and services are accessible. Collections are maintained.

Abrasives Spreading and Broken Branches or Fallen Trees 

Our teams have been spreading abrasives on sidewalks and streets since March 10 to reduce the risk of ice forming on the roadway. Work is also underway to clear the sewer drains.

Ice accumulation on trees still poses a risk of falling branches and tree damage. Our pruning crews are ready to intervene to clear the streets or free the sidewalks.

To contact us

  • Call 311 for an immediate public works intervention.
  • For any questions or comments, submit a request online through the 311 Montréal app or by emait at [email protected]
