Getting Around Vaudreuil-Dorion: Train, Buses & Highways
Train fares and frequency, park-and-ride, regional buses, and highways - and why the REM isn't one of them.
Vaudreuil-Dorion is a regional transit hub anchored by its exo commuter train station, with connecting bus routes and highway access - but it is not served by Montreal's REM light-rail network.
exo commuter train - Vaudreuil/Hudson line
Gare Vaudreuil is the terminus of exo's Vaudreuil–Hudson commuter train line, with roughly a 65-minute ride into downtown Montreal (Gare Lucien-L'Allier) across 17 stations.
This isn't a rush-hour-only train: about 27 weekday departures a day (both directions combined), more frequent at peak times (roughly every 15-20 minutes) and more spread out off-peak. Weekend service also runs, at about 4 round trips Saturday and 3 Sunday.
Gare Vaudreuil (ARTM fare zone C) and downtown Montreal (zone A) require a "Zones A, B and C" fare. Per the ARTM's 2026-2027 fare schedule: roughly $7.00 for a one-way trip, $206.00 for a monthly pass (reduced fares for ages 6-15, students, and 65+). The Chrono mobile app (exo and the wider metropolitan network) lets you plan a trip, track buses/trains in real time, and buy tickets directly.
- These fares come from the ARTM's general (all-modes) fare schedule - it wasn't possible to confirm whether a separate, potentially different train-only fare exists for this line. Check exo's "Find my fare" tool before buying.

Park-and-ride at Gare Vaudreuil
The station has roughly 593 free park-and-ride spaces, plus spots reserved for carpooling and accessibility. Overnight parking (2-5 a.m.) requires separate registration with exo, and there's no space-reservation system at this station.
Temporary spaces were added during Île-aux-Tourtes bridge construction; most were dismantled on December 1, 2025 after a fifth lane on the bridge reopened.
- A 2019 exo press release announced a planned expansion to 826 spaces; more recent sources point to roughly 593 currently - confirm the exact current count with exo (1-833-255-6396) before relying on it.

Local & regional buses
exo's La Presqu'Île sector bus network connects Vaudreuil-Dorion with Hudson, L'Île-Perrot, Notre-Dame-de-l'Île-Perrot, Pincourt, Rigaud, and Saint-Lazare.
A separate route (circuit 99, exo du Sud-Ouest) links Gare Vaudreuil with Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, with four morning and four evening departures.
Transport Soleil provides adapted paratransit and taxi service for eligible riders.

Highway access
The city is served by highways 20, 30, and 40. Highway 40's Île-aux-Tourtes bridge - the only direct link to Montreal's West Island - has been under major reconstruction since late 2023; see this site's dedicated page on that project below for the timeline and what it means for your commute.
Highway 30 (A30 Express) carries a toll: roughly $4.40 per crossing for a car under the fee schedule in effect through January 2027. That toll was temporarily suspended in 2021 after the Île-aux-Tourtes bridge's emergency closure, and is occasionally suspended again for scheduled bridge closures - but that's a one-off measure, not an ongoing waiver; the toll is active most of the time.
The REM does not serve Vaudreuil-Dorion
Montreal's REM (Réseau express métropolitain) light-rail network does not extend into Vaudreuil-Soulanges. Its western branch terminates at Anse-à-l'Orme on Montreal's West Island and does not cross the Île-aux-Tourtes bridge. As a result, some exo express bus routes connecting Vaudreuil-Dorion directly to Montreal have been restructured. Because this is an active, evolving situation, confirm current routes close to when you actually need them.
