  • A Critical Evaluation of the Public Consultation Process in Sustainable
    A critical evaluation of the public consultation process in sustainable urban development A Case Study of the Public Consultation on the Urban, Economic and Social Development Plan (PDUES) for areas surrounding the Turcot interchange in Montreal, Canada. Audrée Paquette Department of Human Geography, Stockholm University Master’s Thesis in Urban and Regional Planning, 30 HECs Spring term 2020 Supervisor: Andrew Byerley 0 Abstract The purpose of this study is to critically analyse how existing structures of public consultation articulate with the aim of achieving sustainable city development. Empirically, this study analysed the impact of public consultation on decision-making of the Urban, Economic and Social Development Plan (PDUES) for areas surrounding the Turcot interchange in the city of Montréal. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with people involved in this project and the perceptions and experiences of both processes expressed by the interviewees constitute the results of this study. The research further draws on theories of participatory democracy and urban political ecology. The study shows that the consultation process was transparent, flexible and open as there was a real willingness from all actors involved to get the best outcomes possible for the area. There was also a shared vision and agreement on what sustainability would mean and implicate for the neighborhood. However, once the consultations were over, communication between the South West borough and the population in regard to the project’s development seemed to have gradually diminished to nothing. As there is a clear imbalance between the first and the final stage of the public consultation process in term of collaboration and interaction, perhaps considering a legally-binding agreement that would cover the entire process could be a pertinent solution.

Although this structure was not at the end of its life, the location of the foundation elements was incompatible with the layout of the new Turcot interchange, forcing its re- DECK INSTALLATION placement. The location of the bridge also coincided with the Saint-Pierre collector buried BY LAUNCH in the ground. In order to replace the structure, the MTQ wanted a bridge with a strong architectural signature marking the entrance to downtown Montreal in this highly visible location from all directions. The selected structure is an asymmetrical cable-stayed bridge with two continuous spans, of 55 and 65 m long. The deck is an orthotropic box type with variable inertia, en- tirely made of steel. It is supported by 10 guy lines (5 per span) which are supported by a steel pylon with variable geometry having a height of 55 m. CONTEXT AND The structure was designed to allow an installation by launch.

  • Projet De Remplacement Du Tablier Du Pont Honoré-Mercier
    PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release Major Roadwork Blitzes at the Champlain Bridge Two Weekends in May Longueuil, May 3, 2016 – The Jacques Cartier and Champlain Bridges Incorporated (JCCBI) would like to advise road users that two major roadwork blitzes will take place at the Champlain Bridge in May. These blitzes will entail replacing 2 expansion joints and the repair of another expansion joint on the bridge’s deck, and thus result in complete closure to all traffic in one direction at a time. The work will be performed during the weekends of May 20-21 and 27-28, from Friday at 10 p.m. to Monday at 5 a.m. This roadwork is essential in order to avoid that water creep into cracks between lanes and damage some of the bridge’s structural members. Expansion joints fill the space between the bridge’s spans, which are mutually independent. They also enable traffic to flow safely, since they prevent discontinuity in the pavement. These blitzes will allow to complete various maintenance work operations and in some cases, contractors and other partners will also conduct work during these blitzes to keep additional lane road closures down to a minimum for users. BLITZ 1: Weekend of May 20-21 As part of this blitz, two expansion half-joints will be replaced on the Champlain Bridge’s upstream side, which will lead to the following road network restrictions: + Complete closure of the Champlain Bridge, toward the South Shore + Closure of Hwy. 15 South from the Turcot interchange down to Hwy. 132 + Closure of one out of three lanes on the Champlain Bridge towards Montreal + Closure of all access ramps to Hwy.

As Chair of the Conseil du trésor, I aim to have public infrastructure investments meet the priority needs of the population, particulary for vulnerable client groups, while providing a powerful tool for economic development. In a context of rigorous public expenditure management, we have prioritized infrastructure projects that meet the following two criteria: A commitment to countering obsolescence and ensuring public safety The Government is announcing major investments needed to stop the deterioration of assets that are vital to delivering quality services to the population. Accordingly, over $50.6 billion has been allocated to the maintenance, repair and replacement of the entire portfolio of government assets, such as on the roads and in schools and hospitals. A commitment to economic development We are delivering on our commitment to economic development and job creation. Thus, the 2014-2024 Québec Infrastructure Plan will inject fresh vigour into major road projects, the Maritime Strategy and the re-launch of Plan Nord.

  • Expressway Aesthetics Montreal in the 1960S
    e ssaY | essai Ex PrEssway aEsthEtics Montreal in the 1960s MgT Ar ArE E. HODgES is a Professor in > Margaret E. HodgeS the Department of Art History at Concordia University, Montreal. Her research focuses on Canadian architecture and urban planning, the work of women architects, and the aesthetics of architecture. n this paper I examine the Modern Iaesthetics of the urban expressway as it applies to the Turcot Complex in Montreal, built during the 1960s and early 1970s. The aesthetic value of the elevated expressway was understood in terms of its functionality, to ensure the smooth flow of traffic and the overall working of the city. The possibility of moving at high speeds was part of the aesthetic experience as it contributed to a new way of seeing the world. I argue that the Turcot Complex can be understood in terms of a functionalist aesthetics articu- lated in the urban theory of Blanche and Daniel van Ginkel of van Ginkel Associates, Montreal. I suggest that the phenomenological experience of the elevated expressway, when functioning as first designed, continues to express the positive qualities as articulated in the work of such perceptive theorists as Kevin Lynch in the 1960s. I compare the van Ginkels’ approach with what I call the green aesthetics of today’s approach to urban mobility in North American cities. Montreal is currently deciding on how to handle the deteriorating Turcot Complex and I look at some of the options being debated, including the levelling of the elevated system. In postwar North America, the cross-town expressway was considered a tool to solve the mobility problems of dense intercity traffic.

  • Saint Raymond 2011 Baseline Report
    Research Report SERIES DECEMBER 2012 RR12-02E Saint Raymond 2011 Baseline Study Kraemer, S., Merriman, J., Prince, J., Bornstein, L. School of Urban Planning, McGill University Abstract Saint-Raymond, a sub-neighbourhood of Notre-Dame-de-Grace and located just a few minutes West of downtown Montreal, lies immediately adjacent two megaprojects, the Turcot Interchange and the new McGill University Health Centre (MUHC). With a small and relatively stable residential population, Saint Raymond has a high proportion of non-Canadian-born residents. Th e neighbourhood is defi ned by signifi cant physical barriers, isolating it from other parts of the City, but these same factors may also have played a role in softening gentrifi cation pressures that have been strongly felt in surrounding areas. Th e arrival of the MUHC Glen Campus and the reconstruction of both the Décarie Expressway and the Turcot Interchange present a historic opportunity for the area to benefi t from changes going on around it and to improve connections with surrounding areas. Th is report paints a portrait of the neighbourhood and highlights the directions in which the neighbourhood may be headed.
