Rendering of Shepard Station.
About the station
The station is located near the communities of Copperfield, New Brighton and McKenzie Towne and connects to:
- South Trail Crossing, a large retail and commercial centre at 130 Avenue S.E.
- An employment hub with 4,000 jobs within a 10-minute walk of the station
60% design information
In November 2024 the Green Line team hosted information sessions along the southeast portion of the alignment. We shared the current 60% design for stations between Ramsay/Inglewood and Shepard, as well as plans for bridges and guideways.
At this level of design, key elements have been established and we were able to show Calgarians how these features will integrate within their communities.
What we shared about Shepard station:
- Shepard: 60% station design
- Canopies, platforms and station areas: At-grade station design

Public spaces
Within Shepard Station, larger landscaping elements will provide locations for thoughtfully placed art installations. Whether individuals are waiting at transit stops, riding the train, or walking within the station area, they can interact with the art displayed within it.
An event space north of the station for community programming will be framed by raised planters and tree planting. This space also promotes passenger-friendly space to wait in and travel through.
