Transportation Networks

The SPIPB builds and maintains its own road network. It is built to meet the special heavy transportation standards. Moreover, highway 30 passes through the Industrial Park and junctions with highways 20, 40 and 55 thus linking Montreal and Quebec City. These multi lane highways provide access to the whole North American road network.
