3 Street Southeast (C-Train)
Encyclopedia
3rd Street Southeast was a stop in downtown
Calgary
on the city's C-Train
light rail
system.
The 3rd Street Southeast stop was only used by westbound Route 202 trains (but still at the junction where the Northeast and South lines converge into the 7 Avenue Transit Mall). The Platform for the station was located on the north side of 7th Avenue South.
The 3 Street SE platform is one of three downtown platforms slated for decommissioning as part of Calgary Transit's Seventh Avenue refurbishment. Westbound service on Line 202 will be redirected to a new City Hall platform by 2012. The station has been closed permanently on May 3, 2010.
In 2005, the station registered an average of 3,400 boardings per weekday.
