The Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité durable wishes to inform the public that paving work on Route 340 and Chemin Sainte-Catherine, in Saint-Télesphore and Saint-Polycarpe, will begin on September 18 and continue until the end of October.

The area targeted by this work is located, for route 340, between route 325 and rue des Prés and, for chemin Sainte-Catherine, up to approximately 200 metres from the intersection with chemin Saint-Philippe.

The work will involve alternating traffic on weekdays between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. Flagmen and an escort vehicle will be on site at all times when the worksite is in operation, to ensure the smooth flow of traffic. Access to homes and businesses will be maintained at all times during this period.

The Ministère would like to thank road users for their cooperation in carrying out this work, which will improve the road surface over a distance of nearly eight kilometers.

For the safety of both users and workers, it is essential to respect the signage in place.

Motorists are invited to consult Québec 511, a practical tool for planning their journeys, to find out about current and forthcoming obstructions.
