Maisons-Alfort–Stade (French pronunciation: [mɛzɔ̃ alfɔʁ stad]) is a station on line 8 of the Paris Métro in the commune of Maisons-Alfort. It is named after the commune the station is situated in, as well as the nearby Stade Auguste Delaune.
History[edit]
The station opened on 19 September 1970 as part of the extension of the line from Charenton–Écoles, serving as its eastern terminus until it was further extended to Maisons-Alfort–Les Juilliottes on 27 April 1972. This began a new wave of network expansions after a 18-year break due to limited financial resources during the post-war period. It marks the first appearance of "box stations", characterised by its rectangular shape due its cut-and-cover method of construction.
In 2019, the station was used by 2,330,375 passengers, making it the 221st busiest of the Métro network out of 302 stations.[1]
In 2020, the station was used by 1,393,467 passengers amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, making it the 186th busiest of the Métro network out of 304 stations.[2]
In 2021, the station was used by 1,702,479 passengers, making it the 208th busiest of the Métro network out of 304 stations.[3]
