Tr\u00e8s bonne nouvelle pour les r\u00e9sident.e.s de l\u2019est de Montr\u00e9al : la Ville assurera l\u2019acc\u00e8s aux berges au parc de la Promenade-Bellerive<\/a>, \u00e0 T\u00e9treaultville! Il s\u2019agit d\u2019une belle avanc\u00e9e dans l\u2019acc\u00e8s aux berges et \u00e0 la baignade.<\/p>\n\n

Une revendication qui ne date pas d\u2019hier<\/h2>\n\n

This century-old park<\/a> est le seul acc\u00e8s au fleuve pour l\u2019arrondissement Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve. Ses pentes douces et la qualit\u00e9 actuelle de ses eaux en font un endroit privil\u00e9gi\u00e9 pour la cr\u00e9ation d\u2019un acc\u00e8s \u00e0 la baignade.<\/p>\n\n

It took decades for citizens to finally have an answer to their advocacy <\/a>: le projet d\u2019acc\u00e8s au fleuve, apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 mis sur pause pendant des ann\u00e9es, a \u00e9t\u00e9 enfin d\u00e9bloqu\u00e9 tout en conservant la plage naturelle du parc.<\/p>\n\n

Ainsi, une aire de baignade d\u00e9limit\u00e9e avec sauveteurs et surveillance de la qualit\u00e9 de l\u2019eau verra le jour d\u2019ici l\u2019\u00e9t\u00e9 2022. (Mise \u00e0 jour : le projet de baignade au parc de la Promenade Bellerive est retard\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9t\u00e9 2024)<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Water quality at Promenade-Bellerive Park<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Two years of rigorous tests carried out on the water around the Promenade Bellerive park indicate that it is of perfectly adequate quality for swimming. As is too often the case elsewhere in Quebec, the river near the park has the reputation of being dangerously polluted, which is a myth. Indeed, many places are cleaner than we believe and condemning access to the river is a practice of the past.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It is obvious that surveillance will be required, especially in the event of a risk of sewage spills<\/a>. It is also this type of surveillance that Fondation Rivi\u00e8res carried out in the summer of 2021 at the Verdun beach<\/a>, using a rapid-results water analysis device, which makes it possible to determine in time contamination peaks which require a temporary closure of the beach.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The importance of access to water and swimming<\/h4>\n\n

Equitable access to water is essential for the protection of rivers; Knowing them well and appreciating them allows citizens to see their value and to mobilize to defend them. Furthermore, in a context where summers are becoming hotter and heatwaves are increasing, having access to swimming to cool off becomes a question of health, beyond leisure.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This is where mobilization takes on its full meaning! Indeed, events like the Grand Splash<\/a> allow you to draw the eye to these places where swimming is possible, but which is currently prohibited. We also highlight the spontaneous participation which took place this summer at the Promenade-Bellerive park, in the spirit of these demands.<\/p>\n
