Île-Bigras

Île-Bigras station serves Îles-Laval and is located on the same site as the train station with the same name. The station is raised by retaining walls lined with vegetation to promote its harmonious integration into its environment. The two railway bridges linking the island will be refurbished or rebuilt to accommodate the passage of the REM.
