Montréal, Quebec, June 5, 2021— Tonight, the Samuel De Champlain Bridge will be lit in green to highlight World Environment Day and this year’s theme: REIMAGINE. RECREATE.RESTORE. The display will take place from sunset until 1 a.m.

“Tonight, the SDC Bridge is set to highlight World Environment Day with a special, all-green illumination. With its multi-use path and central deck for the REM, it was designed to promote both active and collective transportation, while restoring the surrounding environment. This bridge truly symbolizes how we can reimagine essential infrastructure while creating sustainable, eco-friendly solutions.”
