Overhead signage for the the only interchange found on L'Ile-Perrot. The Quebec Government has committed itself to completing A-20 as a freeway through Dorion and Ile Perrot. Presumably this would happen on a new alignment, and this interchange would be by-passed. |

This is a photo of the signage for the Don-Quichotte Boulevard Intersection. Boul. Don-Quichotte is one of four signalized intersections along Autoroute 20 ion Ile Perrot. Fortunately, A-40 is located within a stones throw to the north of A-20 so through traffic is not required to pass through either Dorion or Ile Perrot. |

This view looks easterly towards Montreal from Woodland Avenue. The Woodland Avenue interchange was built in the early 200s replacing an out-dated signalized intersection. During the 1960s and 1970s Quebec spent its money by-passing the former Route 2 with A-40 instead of converting Highway 2 directly into a freeway in Western Montreal. |
