Maisons-Alfort–Les Juilliottes (French pronunciation: [mɛzɔ̃ alfɔʁ le ʒɥijɔt]) is a station on line 8 of the Paris Métro in the commune of Maisons-Alfort. It is named after the Juilliottes quarter of Maisons-Alfort.

History

The station opened on 27 April 1972 as part of the line's extension from Porte de Charenton–Écoles, serving as its eastern terminus until it was further extended to Créteil–L'Échat on 24 September 1973.

As part of the "Un métro + beau" programme by the RATP, the station's corridors and platform lighting were renovated and modernised on 11 September 2015.[1] As a result, despite the station being built in the 1970s, the walls of its corridors and mezzanine are clad with the traditional white beveled tiles found on the older stations on the métro. Some of the tiles have dimensions twice that of the classic tiles – a feature also found at Châtelet as well as Basilique de Saint-Denis on line 13. Only its platforms have retained its original coloured tiles.

In 2019, the station was used by 1,779,627 passengers, making it the 260th busiest of the Métro network out of 302 stations.[2]

In 2020, the station was used by 905,627 passengers amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, making it the 255th busiest of the Métro network out of 304 stations.[3]

In 2021, the station was used by 1,297,495 passengers, making it the 251st busiest of the Métro network out of 304 stations.[4]
