Talk:Jacques Bizard Bridge

Year of construction
The information was given to me over the phone by a city of Montreal employee. Until I can go over there and look for a solid reference in the municipal library, that is the information we have. Count it as unreferenced. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 00:12, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

1) If you build a bridge ~200 m upstream from the old one is it a "new version" of that bridge? See Rue Du Pont on either side of the river channel here: http://goo.gl/maps/7FOJ8  2) The bridge was always intended to be a pair. Why the city (well, cities over time) and/or MTQ continue to cheap out and add things to the existing bridge, I'll never know. See the map link above for the wide-enough right of way. Remember, there were plans for Boul Jacques-Bizard (originally to be Crestwood Blvd)/Rue Somerset to be another N-S artery stretching all the way to link up with Cartier in Pointe Claire. The right of way was acquired accordingly. --plaws (talk) 17:33, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
