Cleanliness and Collections: A cleaning crew will be present every day on the Plaza to ensure the cleanliness of the premises, pick up trash, empty garbage cans, and clean adjacent alleys. Cleaning operations will take place every morning on the commercial artery, as well as in the pedestrian tunnel located at 6621 Saint-Hubert Street.

Collections will be maintained according to the usual schedule. Consult Infocollectes to know the collection schedule in your neighborhood.

Urban Agriculture: Urban agriculture containers with vegetable plants and herbs have been installed along Plaza Saint-Hubert.
