Anjou

Construction of the Anjou station

 

Construction site summary

As part of the Blue line project, this worksite involves building a new accessible métro station with two entrance buildings on each side of Highway 25, and a bus terminal. The two entrance buildings will be connected by a pedestrian walkway under autoroute Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine (A-25). It will be open to the public and no fare will be needed to cross from one side to the other.The entire extension is expected to be commissioned in 2031.

Please note that the station name is tentative.

Public information session - Anjou sector

On March 24 and 25, 2025, information sessions were held to inform residents about the métro infrastructures being built in this area, how the worksite will be set up, and what happens next.

Another meeting will be scheduled later this summer to present the upcoming work in the Talcy Park area for the construction of Anjou workshop and underground garage.

Start of work: We plan to start the excavation work in 2025.

Description of the work: Construction of new surface-level and underground infrastructure.

Next step: Dismantling of two commercial buildings at Galeries-d’Anjou, between des Roseraies and Louis-H.-La Fontaine. Two other buildings, located East of autoroute Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine (A-25), at the corner of Louis-H.-La Fontaine and de Châteauneuf, will also be dismantled in the coming months.

Impact on local residents

Start of work

As part of the métro extension project, we’ll soon begin work in the area of the future Anjou* station.

The work will take place on two sites, located on either side of Highway 25. Partial street closures are planned.

During the first few weeks, the contractor will relocate the water mains, sewers and underground cabling and set up the worksites.

Once that’s done, we’ll be able to start the mass excavation needed to build the new station.

Anjou West

  • Work in this sector will begin the week of March 10, with the contractor gradually activating the site.
  • A few weeks after the start of the work, we’ll completely close Place des Roseraies between Louis-H.-Lafontaine and Des Roseraies. That closure will remain in place for several years.

Anjou East

Starting March 19, 2025:

  • A partial closure is expected on De Bourgneuf due to work on the water mains. A few days before the work, a notice will be sent to the homes of residents affected by the water outage. If you’re one of them, please follow the instructions on the notice.
  • On De Bourgneuf, one lane will remain open southbound between Bodinier and De Châteauneuf. We expect this to only last a few weeks.
  • The bus stop on De Châteauneuf for Line 141 – Jean-Talon will be moved to the north-east corner of the intersection with De Bourgneuf for the duration of the work.
  • Sidewalks along the worksite will be closed. Walkways will be installed to allow pedestrians to get around the site safely.

Learn more about the project

In the fall of 2024 and 2025, urban forestry work will take place around the Blue line project worksites. Trees that interfere with the construction sites will be protected, replanted, or cut down. Our team of forest engineers, landscape architects, urban planners, and sustainable development experts has carefully planned these interventions to preserve as many trees as possible.

The goal is to replant the trees wherever possible. Soverdi, the not-for-profit organization overseeing the replanting process, will monitor and care for the trees after they are transplanted to ensure their survival. Trees that can’t be replanted due to their size or condition will be recycled into wood chips, firewood or compost depending on the quality of the wood. The health and species of the trees will also help determine which ones need to be cut down, based on whether they are diseased, subject to borer infestations, or invasive, among other factors.

Ultimately, Blue line project sites will be revegetated and several hundred new trees planted, for a stronger, healthier canopy. For every tree replanted or cut down, we will plant more than two in their place.

The project in images


The Blue line project follows in the wake of the Déclaration du gouvernement du Québec et de la Ville de Montréal to revitalize Montréal East. Many projects are underway to give a new impetus to this sector. Increased mobility, economic development, and improved living environments are at the heart of this ambitious project.
