If you’re headed from downtown to the Champlain Bridge or West Island this weekend you may want to re-think your route.

Starting Friday at 11:59 p.m. the westbound Ville-Marie Expressway will be closed between Robert-Bourassa Boulevard and the Turcot Interchange.

That means the ramps off the Ville-Marie to highways 15 South, 20 West and 15 North will also be closed.
