Important road closures starting today: plan your commute

September 4th, 2026 News

If you drive for your medical appointments, please plan for changes to your usual commute throughout September, beginning Friday, September 4, due to road closures and traffic restrictions related to the upcoming Grand Prix Cycliste and UCI Road World Championships.

To help you plan your commute, we have listed the road closures currently affecting travel to the

Montreal General Hospital (MGH), the Allan Memorial Institute and the Neuro. At this time, these facilities are the only MUHC sites with identified nearby road closures through September 11. As the events progress, we will add information about road closures affecting the Glen site.

We will update this information each Thursday. Lachine Hospital will not be affected.

In the meantime, please check your route before leaving and allow extra travel time whether you come by car or public transit.

The following closures will affect travel in the area surrounding the Montreal General Hospital, the Allan Memorial Institute and the Neuro:

September 4 to 11

  • Park Avenue, west side, between Mount Royal Avenue and Pine Avenue — full closure
  • Côte-Sainte-Catherine Road, west side, between Mount Royal Avenue and Park Avenue — full closure

September 7 to 8

  • Park Avenue, east side, between Mount Royal Avenue and Pine Avenue — two lanes closed over approximately 500 metres, from 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.

September 9 to 11

  • Park Avenue, east side, between Mount Royal Avenue and Pine Avenue — full closure
  • Côte-Sainte-Catherine Road, east side, between Mount Royal Avenue and Park Avenue — full closure

If you normally use Park Avenue or Côte-Sainte-Catherine Road as part of your commute to the MGH, the Allan Memorial Institute or the Neuro, please plan an alternate route.

However, patients travelling to the Glen should allow additional travel time and consider public transit, as event-related traffic restrictions elsewhere in the city may affect overall traffic conditions.
