CTrain Service Information
Sept 28 - Oct 1: Saddletowne to Rundle closure
Affected routes: Blue Line
Affected stations: Saddletowne, Martindale, McKnight-Westwinds, Whitehorn, Rundle
Affected service hours:
Saturday, September 28 (all day)
Sunday, September 29 (all day)
Monday, September 30 (all day)
What to expect:
The Blue Line will be closed between Saddletowne and Rundle stations starting Saturday, September 28 until the very early hours of Tuesday, October 1.
Trains coming from the west/downtown will terminate at Rundle Station – due to track work, only the one side of the platform (the west side) will be open at Rundle for both arriving and departing trains.
For travel between Saddletowne and Rundle, we’ll have shuttle buses replacing train service, running every 5 minutes.
Full CTrain service will be back up and running again by start of service on Tuesday, October 1.
Why are we doing this?
We know these closures can have an impact on your travel, which is why we try to keep them as minimally disruptive as possible. That’s also why they’re so important – because doing preventative work and maintenance now can ensure we’re providing Calgarians with a safe, reliable, and efficient transit system.
Some work can be completed while keeping the trains on track, but there are certain projects that are just too big, or can’t share the space safely while trains are in service, and they require fully closing off sections of the line. Occasionally, a power cut is required to carry out specific work, which also means we need to close the line to train travel.
This weekend, we have a number of repair and maintenance projects on the list, including:
- Crossing replacement at 32 Ave NE
- 64 Ave NE Tunnel maintenance
- Annual switch maintenance
- Work between 32 Ave NE and the end of the track at Saddletowne
- and other projects, as time allows.
Thank you for your patience during these closures!
