Place d'Orleans Station (OC Transpo)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Place d'Orléans (also called Orléans Station) is a Transitway Station in the Orléans community of the city of Ottawa, Ontario. It is located just off Highway 174 and Champlain Street right next to Place d'Orléans Shopping Centre.

This is the main transit hub between local routes in Orléans and Route 95.

There is a Park and Ride lot located north of Highway 174 off Champlain street. This lot is accessible from the main station by a covered pedestrian overpass, and is also serviced by Route 95 as it departs on the westbound Transitway. This parking lot reaches capacity on a daily basis, and, overflow parking is allowed at the south-west corner of the Place d'Orléans Shopping Centre. The Trim Station and associated park and ride lot were constructed in part to alleviate pressure on the Orléans park and ride lot.
