Chaudiere Bridge to close due to high water levels, according to CBC Ottawa: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/chaudiere-bridge-closing-sunday-flooding-1.5114218

I wonder if they're going to make 105 a regular route again temporarily like they did in 2009. Though that was planned last time.

Lol. OC really forget the other routes in Gatineau? 61 (peak), 95 (peak), 105, 234, 293? I don't think this bridge closure will only just be the weekend.

The 234/293 wouldn't be affected as both use the Portage Bridge.

Many, many detours this Sunday, May 5th for the annual CN Cycle for Cheo. Link Here

It will also mean, funny enough, that route 44 will be on detour from and a detour, since they have been saying that the Chaudière bridge may now be closed for weeks.

From Sto.ca

Due to the exceptional situation resulting from the high water levels of the spring flood, road closures and roadworks, we making every effort to provide efficient detours and alternatives to minimise the imapcts on your trips.

Measures to compensate for closures and work on the bridges

Morning rush hour

Reserved lane on Alexandre-Taché and Laurier

Since May 13th, a reserved lane is now open during morning rush hour on Alexandre-Taché blvd & Laurier street, between Saint-Joseph & Maisonneuve.

This lane is reserved only for buses, taxis and 3 + passengers vehicules, Monday to Friday from 6 am to 10 am.

Detour in effect for routes : 22, 23, 24, 29, 40, 41, 44, 45, 46 et 47

Instead of going on promenade du Portage and Hôtel-de-Ville, these routes  keep going on Laurier street.

  • Temporary stops are in effect at Taché/Montcalm & Laurier/Laval. Please get off at these stops if your destination is in the area.
  • Other routes maintain their usual route via promenade du Portage. Take note that bus stop Hôtel-de-Ville/Portage (#2612) is not served  for indefinite period, you have to go at Portage/Aubry bus stop (#2610).

Afternoon rush hour

Regular routes

During the afternoon rush hour, routes 22, 23, 24, 29, 40, 41, 44, 45, 46 and 47 continue their regular route via Portage.

  • Take note that bus stop Hôtel-de-Ville/Portage (#2612) is not served  for indefinite period, you have to go at Portage/Aubry bus stop (#2610).
     

Leaving from the Quebec side

Major traffic congestion on Wellington when leaving Ottawa causes delays for the buses. These delays result in more riders at the stops, leading to overloading before the buses even cross to Quebec. Consequently, to allow these riders to board, several buses have been identified to start their routes at the Hôtel-de-ville/Promenade du Portage stops, rather than on Wellington in Ottawa.
