Sidewalk repairs on Principale Street during the week of May 11
The Public Works and Fixed Assets Department is pleased to announce that reconstruction work on seven sections of sidewalks will take place from May 11 to May 15, 2026, between 15, rue Principale Nord and 11, rue Principale Sud. This work is part of the preparation for the general pavement reconstruction of Principale Street, to be carried out by the Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité Durable (MTMD).
The aim of the work is to restore seven sections of sidewalk that are damaged or in need of upgrading, in particular the drop-offs at the intersection of Principale and Maple Streets, in order to improve user safety

The worksite will be in operation every day, from Monday May 11 to Friday May 15, between 6.30 a.m. and 5 p.m. Work will start early in the morning to take advantage of a period of reduced traffic flow to optimize work progress.
Temporary inconveniences, including noise, are to be expected. We would like to thank our citizens and shopkeepers in advance for their understanding and patience while we carry out these important improvements for everyone’s safety.



Obstacles and traffic management
For the duration of the work, rue Principale will remain open to alternating traffic. Flagmen will be on hand at all times to ensure safe and smooth traffic flow.
Access to shops and businesses will be maintained throughout the work. Safe pedestrian crossings will be installed to allow access to businesses affected by the work, including the Post office, La Rumeur Affamée, Round Top Bagels, La Réserve Naturelle and Le Gros Nez.
Parking spaces on rue Principale will remain accessible throughout the work.
As with all roadworks, these may be modified or postponed due to operational constraints or weather conditions.
Important: for the safety of road users and workers, it is essential to obey the signage in place at all times.
