[edit] Location
The Scott Road Station is located at the interchange between the King George Highway and Scott Road, at the south end of the Pattullo Bridge, connecting Surrey and New Westminster.
[edit] History
The Scott Road Station was built in 1990 as the terminus of the first extension of the Expo Line. (This extension included two stations; Scott Road and Columbia in New Westminster).
The station itself is located in a very desolate industrial district, but it is also one of the most important transfer points for TransLink passengers. Unlike most stations, which rely on passengers arriving by foot or by bus, this station includes a massive park and ride facility with 1532 spaces managed by the Imperial Parking Canada Corporation. Current daily fare is CAD $3.00.
[edit] Services
The Scott Road Station is a major connection point for the TransLink bus routes that service Surrey, North Delta, and Ladner. The station is adjacent to one of the largest park-and-ride lots along the SkyTrain route.
