Traffic

This is still considered Aylmer's main commuter routes, as it is only one of two (soon three) that heads towards bridges to Ottawa. Chemin d'Aylmer gives access to the Champlain Bridge towards Tunney's Pasture and Westboro. In the past, there were major lineups that slowed down traffic on that route. The bridge added a reversible carpooling lane in 2004 which eased up the delays during the morning rush hour.
