==Transport== Verdun is served by Quebec Autoroutes [[Quebec Autoroute 15|15]] and [[Quebec Autoroute 20|20]], which skirt the northern and eastern edges of its mainland portion and merge with [[Quebec Autoroute 10|Autoroute 10]] on Nuns' Island. The island is connected to the Island of Montreal and the South Shore via the [[Champlain Bridge (Montreal)|Champlain Bridge]]. The borough is contemplating the possibility of building a service bridge between the Island of Montreal and Nuns' Island. The bridge would connect Boul. Marguerite-Bourgeoys on Nuns' Island with Rue Galt in mainland Verdun. It would be accessible only to city services, public transit, cyclists, and pedestrians.<ref>[http://ville.montreal.qc.ca/pls/portal/docs/PAGE/ARR_VER_EN/MEDIA/DOCUMENTS/PONT_IDS_RAPPORT_FINALL-30-06-08-%20ANG-2.PDF "Report by the special committee examining the appropriateness of building a bridge connecting the two shores of the Verdun borough."] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121002091320/http://ville.montreal.qc.ca/pls/portal/docs/PAGE/ARR_VER_EN/MEDIA/DOCUMENTS/PONT_IDS_RAPPORT_FINALL-30-06-08-%20ANG-2.PDF |date=2012-10-02 }} Arrondissement de Verdun, July 2, 2008.
