Bridgeland/Memorial is a stop on the Northeast Line (Route 202) of the C-Train light rail system in Calgary, Alberta. The station is located in the centre of Memorial Drive Northeast. It serves St. Patrick's Island, which is only a short walk away, as is the Calgary Zoo, although it is also accessible via the Zoo station of the system. The station recently (2005) underwent upgrading and renovations to improve safety and access for visually impaired users wishing to access the nearby CNIB facility, and also in preparation for increased usage as work on The Bridges - a major inner city redevelopment project on the north side of the station - progresses.

In 2005, the station registered an average transit of 1,300 boardings per weekday.[1]
