Transporting of soil :truck route modified

Given the start of this project, the truck cleaning station will be re-located; it is presently at the entry point of the construction site. As a result of discussions with the golf course developer and the owner of the truck cleaning station, it was agreed to re-locate the cleaning station from the northern side of the future golf course, near the Adrien D. Archambault Park.

"This new route should significantly reduce the movements of trucks on the golf course site, and consequently enable workers to complete as quickly as possible the enhancement required by the Minister of Durable Development, Environment and Parks", said Borough Mayor Claude Trudel. It will be recalled that the Minister had required the addition of clean soil on future golf course site for ecological reasons.

In parallel, developers should comply with the requirements of the Borough covering construction hours, adequate maintenance of infrastructures and cleanliness of sidewalks and pavements near the sites. Not respecting these conditions could ultimately lead to the closing of construction sites, forcing those responsible to take appropriate steps to comply. As reported in a preceding article, the availability of clean soil is a determining factor in the duration of problems relating to trucks. The greater the availability of the soil, the easier and quicker it can be transported to the golf course. And as soon as this operation is completed, truck traffic will considerably diminish in the Island's streets.
