Universal accessibility

The Parc Jean-Drapeau team makes every effort to accommodate people with reduced mobility and functional limitations. The existing infrastructures are accessible and we have a continuous improvement process put in place.

Reception

The Information Center located in the centre of Espace 67, provides unobstructed access and wide, automated doors. The building is also designed to afford ample space to move around for wheel-chair users.

Restrooms

Most of the Parc's washrooms are adapted for people with reduced mobility.

The new buildings, as well as those which have been renovated, have automated doors and either direct or gently sloped accesses.

Restaurant

The Ste-Hélène Bistro-Terrasse restaurant, located at Espace 67, is adapted for reduced mobility clientele.

Parking areas

Places reserved for motorists bearing a car sticker for a handicapped person are available in most of the Parc Jean-Drapeau parking lots.

Free for handicapped people

Parking is free at all times for motorists who have a parking sticker for handicapped people.

Subway station

The two elevators at the Jean-Drapeau subway station provide wheelchair access to the subway. However, there are no elevators on the platform level in the two other stations on the ligne Jaune (Yellow line).

Work is currently underway at the Berri-UQAM station to install elevators to service the ligne Jaune (Yellow line).

Wheelchair clientele can travel to Parc Jean-Drapeau by adapted transport or by using the regular bus lines.

STM Shuttles

The STM shuttle buses serving Parc Jean-Drapeau (767, 768 and 777 lines) have front and back access ramps. The buses also have a signage and sound system that enable a rider to visualize and/or hear the next-stop announcements.

Picnic tables

More than 150 picnic tables are available at the Parc, including 30 tables that are wheelchair adapted. The tables are located in the Floralies Gardens, Espace 67, near the Aquatic Complex and the Biosphere.

The picnic tables are constantly moved around depending on the events and activities, so we cannot provide an exact geolocation of the tables.

Wheel chairs

Please note there are wheel chairs at the Athletes' Quarters, the Beach and the Aquatic Complex. The wheel chairs can be loaned to clientele in case of emergency. They are functional and adjusted to the access of all locations at the Parc.

Aquatic Complex

The Aquatic Complex is accessible to people with reduced mobility as it provides unimpeded access, an elevator and adapted toilets.

Access to the pool is easily done through a gently sloped entrance. A specially adapted bathing chair for people with reduced mobility is also available.

Please note that the grandstands are not accessible to people with reduced mobility.

Jean-Doré Beach

At Jean-Doré Beach, there is a sidewalk around the facility, making it easier for clientele to circulate between the P4 and P5 parking area, site entrance and the changing rooms.

Also, a pool chair specially adapted for people with reduced mobility is available.

Athletes' Quarters

The Athletes' Quarters are adapted for people with reduced mobility, providing unobstructed access, automated doors and wide training rooms and corridors.

Espace Paddock

Certified as an accessible establishment by a Kéroul organization evaluator, Espace Paddock meets all accessibility criteria relating to the visitor's travels around the site, offering an enjoyable visit for most of the people that have impaired mobility.

Companions

The Accès 2 card and the Companion Leisure Card (CAL) are accepted at Jean-Doré Beach and the Aquatic Complex, providing the companion with a free ticket.
