Honoré Mercier Bridge

The Honoré Mercier Bridge spans 1,933 meters across the Saint Lawrence River, connecting the municipalities of LaSalle and Kahnawake through four traffic lanes.

Built in 1934 during the expansion of Montreal's infrastructure, the bridge serves as a memorial to Honoré Mercier, a former Premier of Quebec.

The structure connects Montreal with the Mohawk territory of Kahnawake, functioning as a vital link between these distinct communities across the Saint Lawrence River.

The bridge maintains a speed limit of 70 kilometers per hour and accommodates approximately 67,000 vehicles daily, with specific lane configurations during peak hours.

The bridge underwent a major rehabilitation in 2009 using prefabricated concrete panels, extending its operational lifespan by an additional 75 years.
