J-C Bridge down to one lane each way

Once again this weekend the Jacques-Cartier bridge is down to one lane each way while the second half of the road surface is repaved. I was on the bridge Friday night for the Italian fireworks, so I can tell you they’ll have the east side open while working on the west side this weekend.

It was kind of interesting to see how they’d repainted the lines. Every so often a dot had been placed on the fresh paving. I think someone must use a laser sight to draw out the correct line, placing a dot every so often, and then the guy driving the line-painting vehicle follows them.
