If you are travelling by car from elsewhere in Canada or the United States, Montréal can be easily accessed by highway. The island of Montréal is only 75 kilometres (46 miles) from the US border, and many roads and expressways lead to the city, including the Trans-Canada Highway. Depending on your point of origin, you may take one of the major bridges—Champlain, Jacques-Cartier or Victoria, or the Louis-Hippolyte Lafontaine bridge tunnel—to head downtown.

Weather

Average Weather in Montreal in March is difficult to predict. Early March however should be closer to winter season weather than spring season. Expect freezing weather, with temperatures between -5 Celsius and -20 Celsius. Expect snow on the ground as well. Montreal is well organised for snow removal at the airport and for roads and sidewalks.  For more information: http://www.accuweather.com/en/ca/montreal/h2k/march-weather/56186

It is recommended to bring boots, winter jacket and possibly some gloves and winter accessories.
