[edit] Origin of name

Sainte-Dorothée takes its name from the Sainte-Dorothée district of Laval, Quebec.

Prior to the modernization of the Deux-Montagnes Line, between 1993 and 1995, there were three stations served now by Sainte-Dorothée, from north to south: Laval-sur-le-Lac, Laval-Links, and Sainte-Dorothée. There were plans to amalgamate Île-Bigras into this station as well, but plans were shelved after an outcry from residents of Île-Bigras.

[edit] Location

The station is located at 1411 chemin du Bord-de-l'Eau in Laval. It is easily accessible from Autoroute 440 at its western tip, which becomes Avenue des Bois. Coordinates: 45°31′24″N, 73°51′40″W
