There are plenty of public transportation options nearby. Moreover, you can access the 174 from either Place d’Orleans or Jeanne d’Arc. Orleans Blvd does not have highway access, which cuts down on traffic in the area.
Convent Glen O-Train Station – The Line 1 Extension of the LRT is likely to be running by the end of 2025. This will connect Orleans to the LRT line that runs downtown and through to Tunny’s Pasture. It should significantly shorten commute times for commuters from the East end, and, once operational, Convent Glen station will have trains for both Line 1 and Line 3.
