Sainte-Dorothée is a commuter rail station on the AMT Deux-Montagnes Line in the Greater Montreal, Quebec, Canada area. Sainte-Dorothée is in Fare Zone 3, and currently has 1033 parking spaces [ [http://www.amt.qc.ca/tc/train/gares/index.asp?nogare=10 Gare Sainte-Dorothée] ] .

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.

Location

The station is located at 1411 chemin du Bord-de-l'Eau in Laval. It is easily accessible from Autoroute 440 which, at its western end, becomes Avenue des Bois.
