Rethinking mobility around the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) and Vendôme station
Context
In 2008, the Ville de Montréal launched the redevelopment of the area surrounding the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC), in order to adapt the street network for the arrival of this major hospital complex. Several streets have undergone various redevelopments, including:
The complete reconstruction of Boulevard Décarie, with wider sidewalks and plantings;
Two-way traffic on Boulevard de Maisonneuve between Rue Addington and Boulevard Décarie;
Two-way traffic on Avenue Girouard north of Chemin Upper Lachine.
Interrupted during the reconstruction of the Turcot interchange, the project has now been relaunched: the Ville de Montréal, in collaboration with the Borough of Côte-des-Neiges–Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, is undertaking a major mobility study to review the organization of the sector's mobility networks.
The study is prompted by the need to address mobility issues in the area, including difficulties of crossing Highway 15 and the railways, safety concerns due to road traffic, and the inadequate configuration of certain intersections.
The Ville de Montréal is committed to a citizen participation process to allow residents, users, and local stakeholders to express their views on the sector’s mobility issues and needs and to take their concerns into consideration.
