Rang Saint-Marc is completely blocked to traffic, from Montée Signer to Route Édouard-VII, until May 24.
In addition, Highway 15 is partially blocked between km 21.4 and km 25.5, in Saint-Jacques-le-Mineur, towards the border, until January 20.
A partial obstruction is in progress on route 202 from Rang Saint-Claude, to Rang Saint-Georges, until March 28. As for rang Saint-Georges, it is completely blocked between route 202 and the Odelltown climb.
