BOIL WATER ADVISORY | A preventive boil water advisory is currently in effect for residents of Oak, between Green and Lespérance. Residents must boil water for 1 minute before consuming it.
Due to work to replace a flowmeter at the Le Royer drinking water treatment plant, Riverside Street will be closed between Edison and Fort avenues until May 17.
UPDATE | The preventive boil water advisory that was in effect for residents of Green, between Oak and Maple, and of Oak, between Desaulniers and Green, is now lifted.
In the summer of 2024, the Ville de Saint-Lambert will rebuild part of Green Street (between Notre-Dame and Oak avenues). The work will consist of replacing the sewers and water mains, repaving, and rebuilding the sidewalks. The City will take advantage of this work to decontaminate and rebuild the library parking lot.
All work, including the first layer of paving, is expected to last until the end of summer 2024. The second layer of paving will be laid in the summer of 2025.
We are conscious of the inconveniences caused by such a major project and how they will disrupt your daily life. We would therefore like to help you prepare for the work.

Neighbourhood residents
The reconstruction of a street is a complex operation involving several companies, and it disrupts people’s lives. We invite you to consult the Practical information during roadwork page, which will offer practical tips to ensure your daily routine remains as unaffected as possible.
Planning on doing some renovations this summer?
If you wish to carry out renovation work on your home this summer, we invite you to consider the inconveniences caused by this major roadwork when planning your project. Remember that, among other things, when excavation work is underway to replace the pipes and rebuild the sidewalks in front of your home, it will be temporarily impossible to access your home with a vehicle. This type of work usually takes 10 working days.
Take advantage of the roadwork on your street to make some home improvements
During this roadwork, the entire street will be rebuilt, including replacing the water supply mains, sewer pipes, roadway, and sidewalks. You might want to undertake certain projects, which will be easier to do at this time, such as:
Sewer pipes and water supply mains
The Ville de Saint-Lambert will replace the water supply mains and sewer pipes up to the right-of-way of your property.
If you think there is a problem with your private water supply mains or the sewer pipes that run between your home and the property line, or that they might be obsolete, this would be a good time to replace them after the end of the rehabilitation works.
Driveway
If you would like to change the configuration of your curb and driveway entrance, this would also be a good time to schedule such work. You must submit your demand before April 19, 2024.
