Lougheed Town Centre (sometimes abbreviated as Lougheed) is an elevated station on the Expo and Millennium Lines of Metro Vancouver's SkyTrain rapid transit system. The station is located at Lougheed Highway and Austin Road in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. Initially a Millennium Line station, a reorganization of SkyTrain service patterns in 2016 brought a branch of the Expo Line over the existing tracks to serve the station. It is one of three stations where transfer between the Expo Line and the Millennium Line is possible, the other two such points of transfer being Commercial–Broadway and Production Way–University stations. The station is adjacent to a mid-size shopping mall, the City of Lougheed, formerly named "Lougheed Town Centre", from which the station drew its name. A Korean neighbourhood exists within walking distance of the south side of the station. History Lougheed Town Centre station was opened in 2002 as part of the original Millennium Line project. The station was designed by the architecture firm Paul Merrick Architects. An unfinished third platform had been roughed in on the east side of the station during its construction, in anticipation of a future connection for a SkyTrain extension to Coquitlam. The provincial government suspended plans for the extension in the early 2000s, and in the interim TransLink decided to use light rail technology for the alignment instead of Bombardier's Advanced Rapid Transit technology (as used on SkyTrain's Expo and Millennium Lines), which would have rendered the roughed-in platform and the adjacent switches obsolete. In 2008, the provincial government announced new plans for the line, including a return to the use of SkyTrain technology. As a result, the third platform at the station would be built and used to connect to the Evergreen Extension stations. In 2012, construction began on the Evergreen Extension, which included the third platform at Lougheed Town Centre station. In 2016, SkyTrain service was reconfigured in anticipation of the opening of the Evergreen Extension; as a result, Lougheed Town Centre station became a temporary terminus station of the Millennium Line on October 22, 2016, with service running between VCC–Clark station and this station. At the same time, the third platform at the station opened, and a new Expo Line branch running between Waterfront and Production Way–University stations was created to serve the station. When the Evergreen Extension opened on December 2, 2016, Lafarge Lake–Douglas station became the eastern Millennium Line terminus. For
