According to the article one can have TWO 46 litre tanks of propane and the perp had 216 litres on board. If I remember my conversions correctly, this would be TWO 12 gallon tanks and the perp had just under 60. My coach has ONE 40 gallon (155 litres) propane tank. Assuming, of course my tank was full. That said, full is only 80%, plus or minus, capacity or 32 gals/124 liters. Still, I'd be over the legal limit unless my tank was almost empty. This then, would prohibit me from using that tunnel...is this correct?"
Yes, it seems that you could not use the tunnel in a MH. I was advised of this by my dealer in a general conversation so have always avoided Montreal in my MH. The tunnel is fairly long and goes under the river and is usually very busy.
I understand that there is a tunnel near Boston with the similar propane restrictions.
I've always hated going through Montreal (heavy traffic and signs in French only)and usually go through the US, but with the Canadian dollar so low, it would cost more.
I'm going on a trip with the MH to the Maritimes in two weeks and have to go through Montreal both ways. A couple of years ago they put in a bypass (Hwy 30) with a minor toll. Roughly same distance/time but no tunnel, still lots of traffic.
