Why do the streets in sector I start with I?
Brossard is divided into sectors, and each sector has its letter: almost all of its streets start with it. The system goes back to the 1960s master plan drawn up by the engineering firm Beauchemin, Beaton et Lapointe, so people could find their way in a city without a grid. The big boulevards cross several sectors and do not follow the letter. In sector I, the Commission de toponymie notes it on each street’s official record. [1, 6]
