Location

Candiac station is a commuter rail station operated by Exo in Candiac, Quebec, Canada.

It is the outbound terminus of the Exo line 13 - Candiac. The platform is only 10 metres (30 ft) long, requiring selective door operation.

History

It was announced in 2004 that the Agence métropolitaine de transport (AMT) would extend the Delson commuter line to Candiac.[5] On April 11, 2005 the station was inaugurated with two morning departures and two evening arrivals on weekdays.[6][7]

In 2019 the city of Candiac announced that the vacant land surrounding the station was selected by the Montreal Metropolitan Community to pilot a transit-oriented development project.[8]
