The Minist\u00e8re des Transports (MTQ) informs you that sound surveys are underway in your area as part of the Turcot project. Surveys will be conducted until mid-November 2022.<\/p>\n
Sound survey procedure<\/strong> \nIn the context of a legal action brought by the City of Westmount, the parties mandated a joint expert to conduct 14 short- and long-term sound surveys on the territory of the City of Westmount.<\/p>\n
To do so, sound surveys are conducted by SNC-Lavalin representatives on various private and public lands in the area. On private lands, surveys are conducted in front of buildings. The required equipment (2 sound level meters, 2 microphones and 2 tripods) need an area of about 2 square metres and remains in place for 24 hours. On public lands, the equipment is installed on temporary poles for 10 to 20 days.<\/p>\n
