Lebreton is a station on the transitway in Ottawa. It is located in the Lebreton Flats area, and has been located around the intersection of Albert Street and Preston Street since the closure of the transitway for conversion to light rail. The Chaudière Bridge crosses the Ottawa River just north of this location, and the Canadian War Museum is in walking distance.

It is often frequented by those continuing to Downtown Gatineau, including the Terrasses de la Chaudière government office complex.

Before its cancellation on December 14, 2006, the O-Train, with the extension of the North-South LRT line (today's Trillium Line), would have served this station heading towards downtown.

It the future, there are plans for extensive residential developments that will create a new urban village in the Lebreton Flats area. This is expected to increase usage of LeBreton Station.

The station is also the rush-hour terminus of the newly created rapid transit route 99 that links downtown to Riverside South in the south end of the city.

Route 93 also has its peak period terminus at Lebreton Station, although its primary purpose is for those working in the Kanata North Technology Park. Consequently, route 93 starts at Lebreton Station in the morning and ends there in the afternoon.
