An elite annual women’s cycling event is again taking over the streets of Gatineau for parts of Wednesday and Thursday.
The Tour de Gatineau draws hundreds of cyclists from around the world for a time trial race on Wednesday and a road race on Thursday.
Road closures last from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. both days, affecting boulevard Alexandre-Tâché east of rue Scott, roadways in the southern tip of Gatineau Park and a loop of Old Hull.
Two blocks of rue Wellington are closed longer, from 7:30 a.m. until 8 p.m.
People who usually commute on Tâché have a suggested detour on boulevard Saint-Raymond and boulevard des Allumettières.
For exact street closure times and parking restrictions, the City of Gatineau advises residents to consult the event website.
