Joyce Station

Joyce Station is located on an elevated portion of the Expo Line, a part of Vancouver's Skytrain light rail rapid transit system.

The station is on Joyce Street at Vanness Avenue. It is located in the area of Vancouver known as "Collingwood", an older but nice, compact community. Just west of this station, the Skytrain line runs at grade level. All of the Skytrain line through this community (from Nanaimo, through 29th Avenue, to Joyce,) is located at ground level.

Joyce Station was built in 1985 as part of the original Expo Line, and provides services to a number of Translink bus routes serving eastern Vancouver and Burnaby, as well as the number 41 bus line that runs westward to the University of British Columbia.

The station is located on the old right-of-way once used by the old British Columbia Electric Railway Central Park Line; this line ran from just west of Nanaimo Station all the way to where the current New Westminster Station is located.
