UCI Road World Championships in Outremont

From September 19 to 27, 2026, Montréal will be hosting the UCI Road World Championships. Some of the races will be held in Outremont. Below are the impacts anticipated on traffic, collection services and parking.
Collection services
For all areas that are not impacted by street closures, the usual collection schedule remains in effect.
If your residence is located on on a street that is either closed or reserved for local traffic only, collection services will be provided on the usual days, at two separate times, as follows:
- Very early in the morning, prior to the street closure
- In the evening, after the street reopens to vehicular traffic
To facilitate collection operations and activities:
- Take your bins to the curb on the evening prior to the scheduled collection.
- Remove the bins as soon as possible on the morning following the collection.
- Write your address on your bins, so that they may be returned, should they get misplaced.
- In the event that you were unable to take your bins to the curb the evening before the scheduled collection day, you may take them out as soon as the street is reopened, before 7 p.m., on collection day.
After waste collection, bins may be left on the street corner nearest to the closure site.
Street Closures and Traffic
From September 23 to 27, 2026, certain streets in Outremont will be closed to traffic to allow the competitions to take place.
Traffic will be prohibited on the race routes, except for emergency vehicles. Closures will generally begin around 7:00 a.m., approximately two hours before the start of the events, and will remain in effect until the route reopens.
