The Broadway Subway will connect businesses, jobs, communities and people with six new underground stations at:

  • Great Northern Way–Emily Carr: on the east side of Thornton Street, just north of Great Northern Way
  • Mount Pleasant: at the southwest corner of Broadway and Main Street
  • Broadway–City Hall: using the existing entrance to the Canada Line at the southeast corner of Broadway and Cambie Street
  • Oak–VGH: on the southwest corner of Broadway and Laurel Street, near Oak Street
  • South Granville: on the northeast corner of Broadway and Granville Street
  • Arbutus: at the northeast corner of Broadway and Arbutus Street.

These stations will make it easier and more affordable to live, work, shop, and access services along Broadway when the extension of the Millennium Line from VCC-Clark to Arbutus Station is completed. The locations were selected based on technical analysis and input from project partners. Properties adjacent to station entrances will be used as work and storage areas to support construction of the underground stations. This will help keep construction activity off Broadway and adjacent streets as much as possible, to mitigate disruption and manage safety for traffic, pedestrians and cyclists.

Each new station will be located underground, including station infrastructure such as platforms, up and down escalators and elevators, clear wayfinding and passenger information, accessible surfaces, such as tactile strips, and public art. Stations will have capacity to accommodate future passenger growth. Stations will be designed with “Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design” principles, including good lighting and an open, transparent design to maximize visibility and safety; security cameras and emergency phones.

Stations will be integrated within the current streetscape along Broadway and include street furniture and bike parking. All stations will be accessible by bus, walking, and cycling for a complete multi-modal experience.

The station will provide greater access to Vancouver City Hall, the Cambie Village area, and destinations along the Canada Line, including the Vancouver International Airport.

Oak–VGH Station

The Oak-VGH station will be located on the southwest corner of Broadway and Laurel Street, near Oak Street. This location will provide better access to Vancouver General Hospital and the rest of the medical district.

This station and bus loop will connect passengers with B-Line bus service between Arbutus and UBC as well as serve the people, retail, services and jobs in the area.
