Banff Trail Station
The station is also located east of McMahon Stadium (which features 780 spaces available for commuters), and the Motel Village district, and north-east of the junction of Crowchild Trail and the Trans-Canada Highway.
As part of Calgary Transit's plan to operate four-car CTrains by the end of 2014, all three-car platforms were to be extended. However, Banff Trail Station was also refurbished in addition to a platform extension. Construction began in early 2014 and continued into Winter 2014–2015. This refurbishment required an extended closure of the station.
The overhaul was completed December 21, 2014. It features new LED lighting, 16 HD security cameras, heated shelters and a much more user friendly, safer contemporary feel.
In 2008, Banff Trail Station registered 5,600 weekday boardings.
