Weekend closures of Alexandra Bridge to motorists

For immediate release

Gatineau, Quebec, June 19, 2026 - Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) wishes to advise users that the Alexandra Bridge will be closed to motorists for maintenance work during the following periods:

• Saturday, June 20, at 6 am, to Monday, June 22, at 6 am
• Saturday, June 27, at 6 am, to Monday, June 29, at 6 am

During these periods, the boardwalk will remain open to pedestrians and cyclists.

The Alexandra Bridge is at the end of its service life, and as such, regular interventions are required to ensure its continued safety. The planned maintenance work includes welding repairs on the Gatineau‑bound lane steel grating, essential to maintaining the structural integrity of the grating until the bridge is replaced.

The schedule may change depending on weather conditions.

PSPC encourages users to exercise caution when travelling on the bridge and thanks them for their patience.
