This state-of-the-art facility is designed to provide efficient and convenient services for both residents and visitors, supporting the ongoing revitalization of the Canalside area.

Thank you to the hardworking employees of the NFTA for their efforts to make this project a reality.”
The new station boasts numerous features aimed at improving passenger convenience and comfort, including advanced ticketing systems, real-time transit information displays, and increased accessibility for all riders.
