Vaudreuil-Dorion— Vaudreuil-Dorion residents will have access to more safe active transportation options after an investment of $2,464,200 from the federal government.
The project involves redeveloping rue Chicoine between route De Lotbinière and rue Trudeau, adding sidewalks, one-way bicycle paths separated from the roadway, pedestrian-friendly lighting and vegetation over a distance of 1.4 km. These new developments are designed to make the street safer, more accessible and more pleasant for pedestrians and cyclists.
By giving more space to active travel and public spaces, the street will become a more user-friendly place, facilitating walking and cycling, while enhancing the quality of life and environment of the neighbourhood.
“We are proud to contribute to the development of the Rue Chicoine area in Vaudreuil-Dorion. The redevelopment of sidewalks and bicycle paths will improve safety and quality of life for citizens, and is also part of a vision of revitalization. We continue to deliver for Quebecers through investments that will make a real difference to their everyday lives.” – Peter Schiefke, MP for Vaudreuil-Soulanges, on behalf of Sean Fraser, Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities
