Part of Quebec HWY 133 Closed from June 5, Truckers Should Plan Alternate Route

An update from Quebec’s Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité durable says part of
Route 133 in Quebec will close as of June 5.

Construction work is resuming on the Highway 35 extension in the Pike River and Saint-
Armand area, which will close Route 133 from June 5 to mid-July between Morgan
Road in Pike River and Champlain Road in Saint-Armand.

The closure will allow the completion of construction on the new Chemin Champlain
overpass over Route 133 and prepare its connection to the future traffic circle.

There are detours with reduced speed limits:
Southbound: chemins Morgan and du Moulin; Northbound: chemins du Moulin, des
Carrières and Marier, rang St-Henri and Chemin Morgan.

The Ministry reminds truckers that these municipal roads are narrow and made of
gravel. They strongly recommend that all truckers plan an alternative route.
It is recommended to use border alternate border crossings other than the St-
Armand/Philipsburg entry and also to avoid using restricted roads such as Chemin St-
Armand or Route 235.

Please be informed that the detour route will be closed to oversize/overweight vehicles
and loads.
