Editorial policy
Welcome to the interactive window of The Jacques Cartier and Champlain Bridges Incorporated (JCCBI).
The primary objective of this interactive page is to explain and present the renovation work on the Mercier Bridge. With complete transparency, this page describes upcoming obstacles on the bridge in order to minimize their impact on users.
What’s more, this page also aims to enable people to express themselves about the project. Whether it’s to ask a question, offer your thoughts or comment on our posts your feedback is important to us.
A project such as this could not be done without impacting traffic, but all decisions were made with the goal of minimizing user inconvenience. We believe it is important to inform you in real time so you can follow the project’s evolution.
Page content
In addition to presenting the obstacles, we would like this site to serve as a showcase this major rehabilitation project, the largest ever undertaken in Canada.

Furthermore, we will regularly add posts to our homepage with the latest news so you can follow the progress of the work. You are welcome to comment on these posts at anytime (see our most recent posts).
