Travel Tips for the Beebe Plain / Stanstead Border Crossing

  • Here is a handy link to hotels in Vermont and here is another link to hotels in Quebec Province on the Canadian side of the border.
  • Think twice about crossing the border at seemingly unmanned surface streets. Border officials patrol these areas constantly and use various types of surveillance to monitor streets without border stations. You have an obligation to report to a border station every time you cross the border whether it is attended or not. This is true no matter how you cross the border – walking, biking, skiing, or driving. If you are caught crossing without reporting to a border station, you can face fines, jail time, and may be banned from ever crossing the border again, even at a legal port.
  • You can get 24/7 information on weather-related road conditions, construction and congestion by calling 5-1-1 within Vermont or by dialing 1-800-ICY-ROAD.
  • Québec also has the 511 telephone service, available 24/7, which provides road conditions information. From within Quebec province, call 511 on any phone. You can also reach it from anywhere in North America by calling 1-888-355-0511 toll free.
