Berri-UQAM is the central station of the Montreal Metro rapid transit system operated by the Société de transport de Montréal (STM). It is located in the Quartier Latin, in the borough of Ville-Marie, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Berri-UQAM )〕 The station opened on October 14, 1966, as part of the original network of the Metro. It is the busiest station in the network, transfers not included. If transfers were included, the 13 million passengers number would rise to about 35-40 million a year. The Green and Orange Lines pass through Berri, and the Yellow Line terminates there. == Overview == Designed by Longpré and Marchand, the station serves three lines: the Green, Orange, and Yellow lines. The main part of the station is a cruciform cut and cover volume built underneath the intersection of rue Berri and boul. de Maisonneuve; the volume is so large that the station's design had to include massive pillars to support the street. This central volume contains three levels. The upper level contains the rectangular mezzanine at its centre, with fare gates on all four sides; the arms extend out to the station's entrances, with two more entrances at the crossing, and are also lined with shops and services. Staircases lead from the mezzanine to the landings on either side of the Orange Line. These landings provide views of the great volumes over the Green Line platforms below. From the Green Line level, escalators and hallways connect the rest of the station to the Yellow Line terminus, built in a tunnel a block away under rue Saint-Denis. Due to limited space in the tail tracks, trains reverse both in the tail tracks and in the foretracks leaving the station. All three lines have side platforms. This station was the first to be equipped with the MétroVision information screens which displays news, commercials, and the time until the next train arrives. In 2009, the station was made partially wheelchair-accessible through the addition of elevators. Two elevators now connect the Orange Line platforms to the mezzanine. The other two lines are not yet accessible. The mezzanine can be accessed from the street via elevators in the Grande Bibliothèque du Québec and UQAM's Pavillon Judith-Jasmin; however, these buildings are not open throughout the Metro's operating hours. However, there is an elevator in the Saint-Denis exit that opened in June 2010. The station has 5 entrances: : 1470, rue Saint-Denis : 1500, rue Berri : 1635, rue Berri : 850, boul. de Maisonneuve est : 505, rue Sainte-Catherine est 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Berri-UQAM (Montreal Metro)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
