Plague of orange cones: 94% of streets blocked in one year in Montreal

A new study by the Chamber of Commerce of Metropolitan Montreal reveals that 94% of streets have been completely or partially blocked in the last year in Montreal.

A summit on construction sites in Montreal will be held on Thursday.

The objective is to find out how we can better manage these construction zones to prevent streets from being blocked unnecessarily.

According to data obtained by TVA Nouvelles, the agents of the mobility squad have also picked up on average, over the past two years, more than 3,000 useless cones in the city, the equivalent of nearly half a million dollars. .

A few weeks ago, Tourisme Montréal denounced the situation by mentioning that we had to do more to eliminate these orange cones.

On René-Lévesque Boulevard, a construction site has been delimited by cones, but no one is working while some are using it as a parking lot.
