Rehabilitation Hickson Avenue and Union Boulevard
Rehabilitation Hickson Avenue and Union Boulevard
In the summer of 2025 and 2026, the Ville de Saint-Lambert will rebuild Hickson Avenue and Union Boulevard. The work will consist of replacing the sewers and water mains, repaving, and rebuilding the sidewalks.
All work, including the first layer of paving, is expected to last until the end of summer 2026. The second layer of paving will be laid in the summer of 2027.
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.
Schedule
Phase 1 (2025)
Preliminary work: mid-May to mid-June
Excavation, piping, concrete, paving: June to October
Resurfacing: October and November
Second layer of paving: summer 2026
Phase 2 (2026)
Preliminary work: March and April
Excavation, piping, concrete, paving: April to August
Resurfacing: September and October
Second layer of paving: summer 2027
Traffic
The work zone, which will vary according to the phase, will be closed to traffic. Residents will be allowed to access the work zone through an access point that will vary according to the progress of the work. On-street parking will be prohibited at all times in the work zone.
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.
For more information or to plan one or more of these projects, please contact the Urban Planning, Permits and Inspection Department at 450-672-4444 or at urbanisme@saint-lambert.ca.

2024-06-26 - Consultation on configuration options for the section facing the park
On June The Ville de Saint-Lambert invited the residents of Union Boulevard facing the park to present two possible options for configuring the street at their level. These options are in direct line with the plan selected for the future rehabilitation of the rest of Union Boulevard. The presentation is available for consultation by clicking here (in French).
The City Council heard the comments and Option 1 was selected.
2023-06-21 - Public consultation
On June 21, 2023, the Ville de Saint-Lambert held a public consultation concerning the rehabilitation work on Union Boulevard and Hickson Avenue.
During the consultation, a presentation of the infrastructure rehabilitation project (median, sewers, aqueducts, roadway and sidewalks) was given to the residents in attendance, who were also able to hear the opinions of experts, including a landscape architect and a forestry engineer, on the various development scenarios analyzed for this boulevard. The presentation is available for consultation by clicking here (in French).
The Council then reviewed the file at its public meeting on July 4, 2023, and on several occasions since. Then, on May 26, 2024, residents were informed of the option that had been chosen. It is an option that leaves plenty of room for cool zones.
