King Edward Station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
King Edward Station is a proposed rapid transit station on the Canada Line in Vancouver, Canada. The station is due to open when the Canada Line opens, in 2009. Following changes in the tunnel configurations for the Canada Line, this station will be the only underground station on the line having a stacked configuration. This station is also being designed to accommodate the future construction of a transit oriented development over the station entrance.
[edit] Location
The station will be located at the intersection of Cambie Street and West King Edward Avenue, with the station entrance at the northwest corner of the intersection, replacing a small strip mall. The station will serve the surrounding residential area, as well as the retail area along Cambie Street. King Edward Station will also be the closest station to Queen Elizabeth Park, located 400 metres to the south.
[edit] Services
The station will be served by the #15 bus providing local surface service along Cambie Street, and by the #25 bus operating east to Brentwood Town Centre Station and west to the University of British Columbia. A proposed cross-town bus service, operating east to 29th Avenue Station (via Cambie, Midlothian, 33rd Ave, Slocan, 29th Ave) and west to the University of British Columbia (via Cambie, 16th Ave, Wesbrook Mall) will also feed the King Edward Station.
