The Champlain Bridge will light up in rainbow colours on Sunday evening to mark the end of Montreal's Pride Festival. While this year's iconic parade was cancelled last minute, Montrealers can still watch the colours of the Pride flag illuminate the bridge and surrounding water on the Saint Lawrence River from sunset until 10 p.m.
Montreal drivers planning to be on the roads this weekend should expect major obstructions, notably on the Metropolitan Expressway, the Victoria Bridge, and several highway interchanges.
Three out of four northbound lanes on the Champlain bridge were closed on Saturday night following an accident involving a vehicle and a motorcycle.
Those driving in and around Montreal this weekend should know roadwork will result in closures in the Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine tunnel heading to the South Shore, as well as on the Pie-IX Bridge in both directions and on highways 13 and 520.
There will be no escaping the orange cones; even the recently completed Turcot Interchange will see nighttime and weekend closures.
