Origin of Name
Du Ruisseau takes its name from nearby Boulevard Du Ruisseau, located in the heart of the subdivision.
Prior to the modernization of the Deux-Montagnes Line, between 1993 and 1995, this area was served by the Monkland station, located some 700 metres further west at the O'Brien Avenue level crossing. It was intended that line 2 be extended at this end. The proposed Bois-Franc metro station could have been intermodal with the former Monkland station.
