Impact on local residents
Join your local good neighbour committee!
Do you live near the future Viau station or de Lisieux auxiliary building and want to have your say in how the Blue Line Project worksite will fit into your neighbourhood at the corner of Viau and Jean-Talon this fall?
A good neighbour committee will be set up in the coming weeks as a space for dialogue between the STM and the local community. We’re currently looking for people who live in the area to join the committee and represent local residents at a few meetings per year.
For now, discussions will focus on the Viau station worksite, but the Lisieux auxiliary building worksite will also be addressed when it’s set up in 2025.
The committee’s purpose is to:
- Provide information and outline the different phases of the project.
- Start a dialogue between residents and project representatives that will continue throughout the work.
- Discuss how the impact of the work will be managed so that resident members can share this information with their local community.
- Understand the concerns residents have about the work and find solutions together.
- Allow local residents to make suggestions on specific topics chosen by the project office.

Upcoming excavation work
Full and partial street closures are planned at various points along the route and will last for varying lengths of time. Detailed planning is not yet available for your area. In the meantime, please see the Latest Updates and FAQ tabs on the project page for more information on the high-level planning.

Public participation
Information sessions, talks, activities, good neighbour committees: our team wants to meet you!
An auxiliary building is a service building, closed to the public and located between two métro stations, that houses a variety of mechanical and electrical equipment needed for métro operations. This includes ventilation equipment, power supply infrastructure and pumps to remove runoff water. There are currently hundreds of these buildings in the métro network.
