Depending on the day and time, Metro Line trains will sometimes end at Health Sciences and other times at Century Park before turning back. This is needed in order to maximize the number of trains we can run during peak and non-peak hours.
Weekdays: Metro Line trains run between Century Park and NAIT station until 10pm.
After 10 pm, Metro Line trains run between Health Sciences and NAIT. If you wish to travel further south after 10pm on weekdays, you will need to transfer to a southbound Century Park train between Churchill and Health Sciences. Traveling north of Churchill also requires transfer from a Metro Line train to a northbound Clareview train.
Saturdays: Metro Line trains run between Century Park and NAIT station until 7pm.
After 7pm, Metro Line trains run between Health Sciences and NAIT. If you wish to travel further south after 7pm on Saturdays, you will need to transfer to a southbound Century Park train between Churchill and Health Sciences. Traveling north of Churchill also requires transfer from a Metro Line train to a northbound Clareview train.
Sundays: Metro Line trains run between Health Sciences and NAIT station all day.

Project History
Edmonton’s Metro Line is a 3.3 km extension from Churchill LRT Station in Downtown Edmonton to NAIT. The Metro Line is the first segment of a planned LRT expansion to Edmonton city limits near St. Albert and is part of the Transportation Master Plan’s vision to expand LRT service to all sectors of the City by 2040.
