Montreal streets used for the World Cycling Championships are reopening as crews begin clearing away the signs, barriers and other infrastructure installed for the event.
All intersections along the race route have now reopened, including the intersections of Mount Royal Avenue and Park Avenue, as well as Pine Avenue and Park Avenue.
Crews began removing signage, fencing, equipment and other event materials Sunday afternoon following the end of the races. The dismantling work is expected to continue for another two to three days.
Mount Royal Avenue and Pine Avenue are open today, although brief closures may be required while crews dismantle two pedestrian footbridges in the Mount Royal Avenue, Park Avenue and Pine Avenue area.
Additional dismantling work is also expected Tuesday, with short-term closures possible as crews finish removing the remaining event infrastructure.
Motorists and pedestrians in the area are being advised to expect some temporary disruptions while the cleanup continues.
