New 800-Space Parking Lot at Montreal-Trudeau Airport

Official title: YUL Montreal-Trudeau International Airport - Development of a parking lot at 400 Michel-Jasmin Avenue (P14)

Closed Environmental Assessment Transportation
Montreal's airport authority wants to build a new surface parking lot with about 800 spaces at 400 Michel-Jasmin Avenue in Dorval. The site currently holds freight truck trailers and passenger buses. Construction includes repaving and installing a stormwater management system.

Why This Matters

Fly out of Montreal often? This could mean more parking options—or higher fees. Live near the airport in Dorval? Construction noise and increased traffic may affect your neighbourhood.

What Could Change

If approved, the airport gains 800 new parking spaces on land currently used for truck trailers and buses. A new stormwater system will manage runoff from the paved surface.

Key Issues

  • Should the airport convert this trailer and bus parking area into a public parking lot?
  • Is the proposed stormwater management system adequate for the new paved surface?
