Turcot Interchange Settlement Agreement

All residents, who at any time since March 21, 2015, resided within 350 meters of that section of the Saint-Jacques Street, (including the Saint-Jacques overpass), which runs West to East, intersecting the West perimeter of Girouard Avenue in the City of Montreal, Borough of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, and the East perimeter of Decarie Boulevard in the same Borough.

Plaintiff alleged that the Ministère des Transports du Québec acted negligently and in violation of his rights to peaceful enjoyment of his property.
