Station design

Green Line stations will be easy to identify and have a consistent look and feel.

They will all use similar shapes and materials that represent images of Calgary. Design concepts are inspired by the Chinook arch, the Rocky Mountains and steam from early locomotives.

Features of Green Line stations

  • Platforms will be centre loading or side loading
  • Stations will have weather protection where possible
  • Heated passenger shelters with glass walls for transparency and security
  • Safety and security features will include open spaces, plenty of lighting and CCTV cameras
  • Some stations will have plazas and spaces that can be used for gathering and special events
  • Pathways and the cycle network will connect to stations where possible

Design features

Station canopies are the design inspiration for all buildings and structures on the Green Line, which will all look and feel similar.

  • Canopies are sleek and smooth, without hard, rigid angles
  • Canopies will have a degree of asymmetry and varying heights
  • Seating and platform shelters will be integrated into the canopies
  • The white metal cladding will have a smooth surface without faceted edges or profiles
  • Smaller items at the station such as planters and waste containers will complement the canopy design
