Quebec Autoroute 40
Ontario Border to Quebec City, QC
Quebec Autoroute 40 is the direct continuation of Ontario Highway 401, running approximately 290 km from the Ontario border at Coteau-du-Lac through Montreal and Trois-Rivieres to Quebec City. It is the primary freight corridor in Quebec, carrying the bulk of Toronto-Montreal-Quebec City trucking volume. Urban congestion around Montreal is significant and Montreal's tunnel construction projects frequently reduce lane capacity. Standard Quebec winter hazards apply throughout the corridor.
