Louis Bisson Bridge spans the Rivière des Prairies between the eastern tip of Montreal's Pierrefonds-Roxboro borough and the district of Chomedey in Laval, Quebec, Canada. It carries 7 lanes of Quebec Autoroute 13, including one reversible lane at the center. That lane is an example of a permanent zipper lane.
The bridge was named after Canadian aviator Louis Bisson.
Famous quotes containing the words louis and/or bridge:
“For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move; to feel the needs and hitches of our life more nearly; to come down off this feather-bed of civilisation, and find the globe granite underfoot and strewn with cutting flints.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
“In bridge clubs and in councils of state, the passions are the same.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
