Accessibility of the métro network

The métro network currently has 14 universally accessible stations. Accessibility work is also underway at Jean-Talon (Blue line), Jean-Drapeau, Berri-UQAM (Green line), Mont-Royal, Viau, Vendôme, Place-des-Arts, Préfontaine, Villa-Maria and Bonaventure stations (by our partner exo).

This work will bring the STM closer to its goal of 41 accessible stations by 2025, as set out in its Organizational Strategic Plan.
