39 APR 2025 | BUSINESS ELITE CANADA team from the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) is overseeing the project, monitoring tree survival rates over a ten-year period to assess the success of different species and planting strategies. Additionally, over 75 hectares of ecologically valuable forested land near the project site will be permanently preserved. Through these measures, the Quebec government aims to mitigate the environmental impact of the Highway 35 extension while enhancing local ecosystems. The combination of fish habitat creation, wetland restoration, reforestation, and land conservation will ensure that the project balances infrastructure development with environmental responsibility. A FUTURE-ORIENTED TRANSPORTATION NETWORK Beyond the immediate benefits, the Highway 35 extension aligns with Quebec’s broader vision for an interconnected and efficient transportation network. The project supports both provincial and federal initiatives aimed at modernizing infrastructure and enhancing trade relationships with the United States. Champlain Road overpass under construction, which passes over Highway 35, in Saint-Armand.
