Mur de soutènement du barrage Simon-Sicard: Mémoire soumis dans le cadre de la consultation du BAPE

8 July 2026

Le projet de mur de soutènement du barrage Simon-Sicard est un projet structurant majeur pour la population riveraine de la rivière des Prairies. S’il est réalisé convenablement, il permettra à la Ville de Montréal d’aménager 1,3 km de berges publiques pour les citoyens qui pourraient prendre la forme d’une promenade le long de la rive, de quais, de zones de baignade ou simplement d’endroits où se tremper les pieds dans l’eau de la rivière. C’est pourquoi nous avons participé aux audiences du BAPE et présenté ce mémoire.
