Notices
Mobility
Rue des Seagull is one-way between Macdonald Road and Parking lot P11 due to the establishment of a pedestrian detour that provides access to the Biosphere.
The work taking place at the Biosphere should be completed by early June 2025.
Delays and detours to be expected, reduce your speed and follow the directions of the traffic signs.
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.
Plan your visit to Parc Jean-Drapeau!
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.

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.

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