Located near the Beauharnois generating station, the Melocheville Tunnel passes directly under the St. Lawrence Seaway to maintain a constant flow of vehicles—and pedestrians! In fact, the tunnel has a dedicated sidewalk that lets you safely walk the 1.4 km under the river.
Summer season schedule: closed*
*The sidewalk will be closed from June to October 2026 due to construction work.
Effective July 1, the shuttle service will operate from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. only (the 24-hour service will be discontinued). Please call (438) 341‑9632.
Outside these service hours, users who wish to cross may, at their own expense, use the services of:
• Taxi Prime (450) 330‑4242
• Taxi Beauharnois (450) 225‑3464 (Fridays and Saturdays only)
In case of an emergency, dial 911.
Winter season schedule: closed*
* The start date of the winter season schedule is set by the City of Beauharnois.
At all times, JCCBI invites pedestrians and cyclists to be cautious and courteous on the paths and follow all safety instructions.
