Nice transit hub.7 buses available.Skytrain expo line to surrey,north burnaby,or vancouver.but the only thing is i agree with other reviews.No restrooms or vending machines.Not enough places to sit in bus loop.
This SkyTrain station is unique in that it is actually at-grade, meaning there is no need to climb stairs/escalators for the inbound platform. To get to the outbound platform though, you must climb and descend a flight of stairs there is an elevator but no escalator. Despite receiving a minor renovation at the entrance a few years ago, the station still feels very dated and underwhelming. It is not ideal that there is only one entrance. It is in a very convenient location though, with a major bus loop, large parks, shops and restaurants, and high-rises nearby.
The best station to find cheap taxis , has alot of buses going almost everywhere around . pretty small station, has an atm , bunch of vending machines , no escalators, not very busy usually , it has the screens showing train timings and also has a navigator screen you can view directions or bus timings from
There are NEVER enough places to sit in busloop. Just a little circle of covered benches that only fit 2 ppl each. Always packed. Some buses are every half hour and in the pouring rain this really sucks. The little shelter is jam packed and often ppl with strollers, elderly with walkers and canes etc are standing in the rain, snow, or hot sun depending on the season cuz the dinky lil shelter is packed. Ridiculous!
Service is fine but infrastructure is very outdated. The bus waiting area in particular is not only ugly but quite dirty as well. No commerce accessible either.
