Info
Lebreton is a station on the transitway in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is located in the Lebreton Flats area, and since September 2016 has been located around the intersection of Albert Street and Preston Street since the closure of the original transitway section opened in 1983. The Chaudière Bridge crosses the Ottawa River just north of this location, and the Canadian War Museum and National Holocaust Monument are in walking distance. It is often frequented by those continuing to Downtown Gatineau, including the Terrasses de la Chaudière government office complex.Before its cancellation on December 14, 2006, the O-Train, with the extension of the North-South LRT line (today's Trillium Line), would have served this station heading towards downtown. It is now is due to be replaced in 2018 with Pimisi station, a nearby light rail station on the under-construction Confederation Line, which follows the east-west alignment of the transitway throughout. There are plans for extensive residential developments that will create a new urban village in the Lebreton Flats area. This is expected to increase usage of Pimisi station.
