Route 148 (Quebec)

Québécois Provincial roads, the 148 , follows an orientation is/western on northern bank of the Fleuve the St. Lawrence. It serves the areas of Laval, the Laurentides and the Outaouais. It begins with Laval under the name Boulevard Saint Martin's day, artery important of this city. It crosses then the Rivière of the Thousand Islands on the Arthur-Saved bridge. Thereafter, it skirts the Rivière of Outaouais until the Isle-with-Matches and finishes on the Morisson island, at the Ontarian border. On this way, it passes inter alia to Gatineau. It is parallel to the Autoroute 50 where this one is present.

A section of the 148 with Gatineau, known under the name Boulevard of Outaouais borrows the original corridor of the Autoroute 50. This boulevard with 4 ways is a fast track. This boulevard is prolonged at present towards the east in the form of urban boulevard, and this, until the current end of the Autoroute 50. In the future, this section of the 148 could always be transformed into highway to prolong the 50 towards the west.

The section between Lachute and Buckingham, district of the town of Gatineau is a very stocked road with 2 ways because it is principal the road bond between Montreal and the Outaouais on the Québécois side. It is a road considered as dangerous because of the many curves, the crossed villages and the large volume of the traffic. For this reason the Autoroute 50 is completed between these two cities parallel to the 148 .
