montréal Raccordement du boulevard Cavendish

[nephersir7]

The Quebec Liberals adopted a resolution at their recent general council meeting, calling for the Cavendish extension between Côte St. Luc and St. Laurent to be realized.

 

The resolution, introduced by the Nelligan riding association in the West Island, states that “the government recommends the [extension] to provide a north-south alternative to motorists from the West.”

 

D’Arcy McGee MNA David Birnbaum said the resolution passage is an “important step forward,” and pointed out that Nelligan is represented by Municipal Affairs and Public Security Minister Martin Coiteux, “who has a key role to play in orchestrating Quebec’s participation in the project.

 

“Cavendish is much more than a plan to reduce west-end traffic congestion,” Birnbaum stated. “With the future developments of Namur-De la Savane, including the Triangle, the Blue Bonnets site and potentially, the Quinze-40 shopping centre project, Cavendish represents perhaps the central economic hub of activity for all of Montreal over the next 20 years. I know that the residents of D’Arcy McGee have been waiting a long time on this file. My colleagues in our government, and at every level of government, are working to make sure we see action, and soon.”

 

 

The D’Arcy McGee riding association contributed an amendment to the Nelligan resolution, which states that the government should “recommend and participate, with the other levels of government, in the financing and execution of the opening of Cavendish Boulevard between St. Laurent and Côte St. Luc to provide a north-south alternative to motorists from the West.”

 

The Suburban contacted Birnbaum’s office, in light of this aspect of the resolution and Mount Royal MP Anthony Housefather’s recent statement that Quebec must declare the Cavendish extension a priority to get federal funding as part of the new federal Liberal government’s infrastructure program.

 

D’Arcy McGee riding bureau chief Elisabeth Prass said the next step in the Cavendish process is currently in Montreal’s hands, and pointed out that the extension is a municipal issue, even with potential provincial and federal financial participation. Montreal has already earmarked $44 million for the project.

Land put on reserve for Cavendish Blvd. extension

The city of Montreal has put reserves on two pieces of property that could be needed to build the long-promised Cavendish Blvd extension.

 

The agglomeration council will vote June 22 on the recommendation by the city’s executive committee that the city put reserves on two vacant pieces of land located near the intersection of Cavendish Blvd. and Dalton Rd., in the boroughs of St-Laurent and the Town of Mount Royal.

 

The city’s real-estate planning division has also recommended the reserves be approved.

 

The properties, owned by Montreal-based real estate firm Développement Olymbec Inc., cover nearly 17,000 square metres and have a combined municipal evaluation of just under $1 million. The reserves would bar the owners from expanding or developing the properties, and are in place for two years. The city of Montreal has long said it intends to connect the northern section of Cavendish Blvd in St-Laurent to the southern sector in Côte-St-Luc.

Whenever we bring up this project, this song always comes to mind.

Je me demande si ce serait réellement une bonne chose. Si c'est pour décongestionner le traffic, en quoi c'est positif? Il va y avoir des millers de voitures de plus dans Hampstead et NDG qui vont venir créer beaucoup de problèmes dans le secteur. Elles vont aller sur Cavendish, Côte-Ste-Catherine et Sherbrooke? Ça va être l'enfer.

et le gens de NDG et hampstead , N'empruntent jamais le réseau routier des autres quartiers, pour aller travailler, magasiner ou autre? Est-ce que vous proposez de construire un mur autour du quartier pour empêchez les citoyens de sortir ou entrer?

Je viens de recevoir un email du conseiller Jeremy Searle

 

[Rocco]

De la petite politique. Faites le raccord prévu depuis 40 ans et fermez lui le clappet.

[Fortier]

Déjà s'il pouvait ne pas se tromper sur le prénom du ministre qu'il mentionne...

[Trudeau]

Nous savons tous que ce raccord aurait dû être réalisé depuis longtemps. Son plus grand obstacle n'est cependant pas l'initiative de Jeremy Searle, mais bien les durs négociations à venir avec le CP pour traverser son corridor ferroviaire.
