As part of
the 7 Avenue LRT Refurbishment Project, the 6th Street S.W.
Station will be closed on Monday, April 7, 2008.
The
existing station will be prepared for demolition scheduled
to begin mid-April.
Construction of the new station is anticipated to begin
mid-May and will be complete by spring 2009.
There will
be no disruption of downtown LRT services due to this work,
however, trains will not stop at the current 6 Street S.W.
station until construction of the new four-car platform is
complete.
Transit
users are asked to plan their trips accordingly using the
8th Street S.W. Station as an alternative.
