Quebec Autoroute 20

Quebec Autoroute 20

Autoroute 20 is a major Quebec Autoroute, following the Saint Lawrence River through one of the more densely-populated parts of Canada, and is part of the Trans-Canada Highway. At 548 km (340.5 mi), it is the longest Autoroute in Quebec. It is one of two main links between Montreal and Quebec City; the other is the A-40.

There are two sections of A-20, separated by a 72 km (44.7 mi) gap which was to be filled in by 2015 according to the Quebec government's Bas-Saint-Laurent plan. The length of A-20 would then be 641 km (398 mi). Currently, there is no official plan to continue construction past Trois-Pistoles, which will leave a 50 km (31 mi) gap.
