Quebec A-73 North, Quebec City, Exit 123 - Exit 139

[AmersfoortTristan]

It looks a lot like a motorway in one of the Western European countries..

[OhSmeg]

Quebec? You sure get around Freeway Brent.

[NorthEastRegional]

I gotta love the grade, been to Montreal, but didn't see much except a portion of a Montreal Route entering the city from the Southeast [can't remember the name]...

[MingGuoLi]

Are you paid for this job?

[wimpie25]

I've always loved the more European layout of Canadian freeways.

[Franks4488]

@wimpie25 : Where do you see the layout are more European ?

[wimpie25]

@wimpie25

Proper consequent road markings, long en wel marked exit and on-lanes. Better road surfaces, more modern and European style light fixtures....

[adrianroam95]

@wimpie25 living in BC, Canada, I've always found Canadian highways to be more alike to US freeways than European ones. just saying

[wimpie25]

@adrianroam95

Yes, they look very northern American. But they have a huge European feel to them compared to American freeways.

[HoltCalifornia]

Good Job Brent Jonas!

[Zachary77F]

Route 175 shouldn't be called QC 175 or Quebec 175.

[RoyalGrigsby]

Should have used some French music to add to the effect.

[PlanneCrash12000]

In 8th grade I went on a trip to Quebec City and passed on this highway.

[secordman]

It's actually called the Pierre Laporte bridge. Quebec politician murdered by FLQ separatist terrorists in 1970.

[secordman]

Great video, except you won't see a Canadian flag anywhere in Quebec, only on a federal govt building. The rest of North America has nothing on Quebec drivers either. As far as crazy driving is concerned.

[twilightrocks56789]

you exited at the a-440 at a convenient time because there was heavy traffic ahead!!

[twilightrocks56789]

in my opinion you should make more videos in quebec there highways are pretty awsome!

[FreewayBrent]

@twilightrocks56789: Interesting freeways, indeed, but man, they do a horrific job at maintenance on some of them; especially around Montreal! (they seemed to be addressing the maintenance shortfall, when I was there this summer).

I do have about 20 videos from Quebec laying around on my back up hard drives; just a matter of finally putting them together.

[Cool96e]

I've always wanted to see a Quebec freeway video. This one is the best

[FreewayBrent]

I'll eventually have many more videos from the Province of Quebec. Glad you enjoyed this one; it's actually one of my favorite videos, 'cause of the Pierre Laponte Bridge.

[Cool96e]

@FreewayBrent i like it too, and the others with bridges

[aswchris]

trés belle vidéo!

[FreewayBrent]

Merci beaucoup!

[techman224]

Finally I've seen a video of a autoroute in Quebec. I've saw lots of flyover ramps during the video, is it common across Quebec?

[Nexis4Jersey]

hmmmmm, i remember this highway , i found it scary to drive on the merge lanes were to short and the signs weren't placed right. And the pavement looks the same LOL and this was in 2005.

[Freewayjim]

Excellent, enjoyed the ride very much, good soundtrack too.

I saw more Mast Lighting Towers in this video than there are in the whole Metro Atlanta area, love it.

[Bryant5493]

Loved the "metric-speak" in this video.

Brilliant video. I've added it to my favorites.

[CptSchmidt]

When did you record this?

[FreewayBrent]

::thinking::...gee, when was I there? I believe late August.

[CptSchmidt]

Well, very nice! Hopefully you've got more Quebec up your sleeve. I love driving in Quebec, despite their roads being among the worst in Canada as far as maintenance goes.

[FreewayBrent]

Yeah, I have about 20 videos more from Quebec. I'm not sure how many more I'm going to actually work on, although the next one will certainly be A-20 to A-720 thru Montreal.

[ScrewdUPClickV2]

nice .
