Location

Pierrefonds-Roxboro (French pronunciation: [pjɛʁfɔ̃ʁɔksbɔʁo]) in the borough of Pierrefonds-Roxboro in Montreal, Quebec, Canada is a Réseau express métropolitain (REM) station that opened on 17 November 2025.^[6] The REM station replaced a commuter train station named Roxboro-Pierrefonds on the Deux-Montagnes line of the Exo network, which closed in 2020.

History

The railway station was originally named Roxboro, and was built as part of Canadian Northern Railway's line from Montreal to Deux-Montagnes via the Mount Royal Tunnel. It handled passengers, mail, and freight. Roxboro Station burned down in 1932 and was not immediately rebuilt. Instead the stop moved approximately one-half mile (0.8 km) west to where the railway crossed Gouin Boulevard West. This station was known as Ste-Genevieve. By 1944 the stop had returned to its original site and was once more known as Roxboro. The new, small station no longer handled freight.^[7]

In the 1990s, the station was modernized as part of the electrification of the Deux-Montagnes line, and renamed Roxboro-Pierrefonds.

In May 2020, the station was closed, to allow the line to be converted to the REM. The new station was renamed from Roxboro-Pierrefonds to Pierrefonds-Roxboro, to match the name of the borough of Pierrefonds-Roxboro.^[8]

Location

The station is located in the former city of Roxboro in the Pierrefonds-Roxboro borough of Montreal, at 11100 Gouin Boulevard West. The platforms can also be accessed from the east where the line crosses Rue du Centre-Commercial (11th Avenue).
