I took the LRT from Jubilee Auditorium to Corona and it probably took 10 minutes, wow! It was a…read moreshorter walk to from the Jube than I expected and even though it was getting windy, I wasn't freezing. There were people seated inside a enclosed waiting area (maybe this is new as the others reviewers indicated there's no enclosed area) but I like the signs that told me that train was arriving in 2 minutes. I probably waited one minute which is great as they have the trains that go to NAIT and Clareview so they are frequent to go downtown. Wouldn't hesitate to take the train again if I was going to/from the Jube or Hospital to downtown as it's quick and cheaper than parking.

This is the best way of accessing the Hospital or the Jubilee, or many other businesses in the…read morearea. That said it can be a pretty cold station in the winter. There are fare machines here and some heaters and a glass barrier against the cold. The footprints and quotes are nice art touches too! The pedway to the hospital is a newer addition but it is very much welcomed, particularly in cold or inclement weather, but it also means that you don't have to cross the busy street on foot.

That will change over time as the South Campus of the University of Alberta starts to expand into this area. I really look forward to that time when this area is hustling and bustling with University Students and Staff. As far as the station goes it is a pretty bare bones outdoor platform. It gets the job done. There is an enclosure to stand-in if the weather is too chilly for you.

As silly as this may sound I would have to call South Campus one of my favorite stations. The…read moreplatform as well as the building to sit and wait for buses in are always kept really clean. I also find it easy to make most of my bus transfers as the buses are quite close to the train compared to some of the other stations. There are some great routes available once you get off the train if your looking to get to the Leger transit center as well as WEM. I find the transit peace officers tend to ignore it in favor of the downtown stations which some may like and others may not. I can honestly say though in three years of using our public transit I have only been stopped for a proof of payment check here once. There are washrooms available over by the buses as well as vending machines. My one and only gripe with this place is the fact the glass shelters to hide from the elements in are not fully enclosed which seems really silly in a city with Winters like ours.

When I would catch the train to work, this is the stop that I would get off at and recently took…read morethe LRT to this station again. I like that it's connected to Commerce Place and the pedway system to various buildings and it doesn't seem as busy at the Churchill station. There was a coffee shop at the top of the escalator but I believe it's closed now, and not sure if they will reopen. If not, the Tim Hortons in Commerce Place is not a far walk but it is nice to see a local independent place operate here. The escalator was working and a hub for where I need to go.

Much like Churchill the stairwells are sometimes filthy but the station itself isn't that bad. They do have washrooms here as well but I have never used them so I can't attest to their cleanliness. I haven't ran into any intoxicated or shady characters here like I have at Churchill despite Centrals close proximity to Churchill. They also just opened up a coffee shop here called Burrow. I think it's great and super convenient for regular users of the station but lines during peak times might make it a hassle for foot traffic. Definitely not the best station ETS has to offer along the LRT line but certainly not the worst.

This is a a relatively new LRT station. It is connected to the surrounding neighborhoods via…read morepedway. You can access the main bus transit station and the mall from one pedway and the other residential neighborhoods via another pedway. During busier times of day there is a convenience store within. Generally it is a pretty useful lrt station if you want to access the mall or bus station or any of the surrounding neighborhoods. It is clean and well-maintained.

This is another one of my personal favorite stations along the LRT line even though it is one of…read morethe busiest. They do a great job of keeping it clean and I like that they have one of those little convenience stores in a good location so it doesn't interfere with the flow of foot traffic like the one at Century Park where the line often cuts you off from the bus schedules. I also like that because it's so close to the mall it's easy to just use the washroom in Southgate before walking over and catching the train which saves me a trip into the sometimes dirty ETS washroom. There isn't as much room as I would like indoors to hide from the elements during winter time but people who come through this station are generally pretty respectful so I don't worry too much about being bothered or having my personal space encroached upon. I wish all of the stations were as good as the one at Southgate.

I can't believe I'm reviewing an LRT station, but you know what... this review is needed! First…read moreoff, I love this location. It's very convenient for me. And I don't have to park here either. I f'ing HATE this station. It is the most POORLY planned station. It's the only station on the south side with a park and ride (yes, a crappy park and ride), but let's assume that draws even MORE riders. In fact, any transit users who lives in Southwest Edmonton, and even as far as mill woods will likely use this station to get to and from work or school. So why, WHY, dear planners did you only put in One. F'ing. Stairwell. One stairwell that exits to the transit/kiss'n'drop/parking. Hundreds of people get off the train during peak hours. We get the choice of three stairwells to go up to the pedway. Once we all get across the pedway, and everyone is in a rush to get to their bus, these hundreds of people are now herded like cattle into a 3 foot wide stairwell. Maybe it's 5 feet wide. THE ONLY SET OF STAIRS exiting. I actually sent an email to the City last year complaining about this because it's only a matter of time before one rushed person knocks someone down, causes a domino effect, and a lawsuit for the city. And by the way, the City acknowledged they are aware of the issue and aren't sure how to fix it. There is PLENTY of room to have ANOTHER STAIRWELL exiting north. But what do I know... I'm just a Yelper ;) Rant. Over.

Century Park is an LRT station in Edmonton. Here are the pros and cons…read more Cons... - The parking at this LRT station is iffy. If you're coming in the morning at like 7am, then may god have mercy on your soul. You'll only get a parking spot if the flying spaghetti monster touches you with his noodly appendage. Basically in the morning unless you have a prepaid monthly pass you're not parking at Century. The afternoon and evening parking is easier to come by. - The parking lot itself is horrible. Not only is there a lack of spots, but the lot is gravel and gets super muddy in the spring. Watch out for giant potholes. - It's an above ground station, meaning it can get a bit cold in the winter. There are heaters, but in -30 it doesn't do a lot. You can stay inside by the stairwell, but it tends to get a bit crowded. - This station gets busy, especially during the going to work and going home hours (about 6am-9am and 3pm to 6pm). The trains are quite crowded during these times...if you can avoid going at these times of the day I would - There is an escalator going up from where the bus stations are (you have to take the stairs going down), but there's about a 50/50 chance the escalator will be out of service/broken and you'll be taking the stairs. - ETS is a little bit pricey $3.20 for a 90 minute ride, $9 for an all day pass. I don't use the LRT enough for a monthly pass. I recommend buying a 10 pack of tickets (usually available at local 7-11 stores) and you'll save a bit of money per ride. Pros.... - This is the furthest LRT station on the southside, so for people living on the southside, or coming in from the airport (there's the 747 bus hookup) or Leduc it's nice to have this LRT. It wasn't too long ago that you'd have to drive or take the bus to the University Station, because that was the furthest south LRT point in the city. - The trains are usually on time, at least from what I found (and I took the LRT from Century a few times a week when I was in school). There's always the information screens that let's you know when the next train is coming and what direction it's going (Clareview or NAIT). - The parking (when you can find it) is free. - There is now free wifi at the station. Nice. - There is also a little concession/coffee stand in the waiting area for the buses. I've never been there, but it's a nice touch. - And speaking of buses Century Park LRT is right next Century Transit Centre where there are buses that head out to other neighbourhoods on the southside, as well as to the airport, and Leduc (during certain weekday hours only). - The station has a pedway connecting the transit centre side (buses) to the LRT, as well there is a pedway going across 111th to the west side of the street. Nice particularly during winter. - The Kiss 'n Ride signs make me laugh. I think it's supposed to be "you give your s.o a kiss before he/she rides the lrt to work," but when first seeing those signs my mind went somewhere else...just saying. Century Park is all right. I wish the parking was better (I live in Leduc and I can't always take the local bus to the LRT) and the price wasn't so high, but for the few times a year when I need to take the LRT then Century Park is my go to starting/ending station.
