Lyon is a future underground light rail station on the Confederation Line of the O-Train in Ottawa.
This stop will be located under Lyon and Queen[2] and is currently scheduled for completion in 2019.[3] The stop is projected to have high usage, with access to Albert and Sparks Street, as well as the Supreme Court and the National Archives of Canada[4].
The entrance will be integrated into the Place de Ville complex, giving climate controlled access to a mid-rise office building, three office towers and two major hotels.
The platform is located 17.5 metres underground. [5]
From July 16th to September 14th 2017 the underground light and music show Kontinuum was located in the station as part of the Canada 150 celebrations.
