The Francon snow depot is Montreal's largest snow dump, located in the Francon quarry. [1] It is kilometres long, 580 meters across, and 80 meters deep. The depot receives around 40% of the city's removed snow to around 4.8 million cubic meters. The snow melts throughout the summer months and is processed through the city's wastewater systems. [2] Due to the large volume of snow received, it does not usually fully melt until the fall. [3]
History
The depot was originally a quarry until the city purchased the land in 1980 [3]
