CTrain Service Information

July 18-20: Rundle to Franklin – CTrain service disruptions

Affected routes: Blue Line

Affected stations: Rundle, Marlborough, Franklin

Affected service hours:

Single Tracking:
Friday, July 18 (8:15 p.m. to end of service – Rundle & Marlborough only)

Full closure:
Saturday, July 19 (all day)
Sunday, July 20 (all day)


What to expect:

PART 1 – SINGLE TRACKING

NOTE: this part is a partial closure, stations will not be fully closed during single tracking

The northeastbound tracks at both Marlborough and Rundle stations will be closed starting 8:15 p.m. Friday, July 18 until end of service.

This means the trains will only be using one track at these stations for travel in both directions. Whether you’re heading northeast to Saddletowne or west to 69 Street, you will need to catch the train via the west platform (inbound, heading towards City Centre) at both Rundle and Marlborough stations.

PART 2 – FULL CLOSURE

The Blue Line will be closed between Rundle and Franklin stations starting Saturday, July 19 until the very early hours of Monday, July 21.

Trains coming from the west and downtown will terminate at Franklin Station. And trains from the northeast will terminate at Rundle. For travel between these stations, including Marlborough Station, 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 Monday, July 2.

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:

  • 36th Ave NE tunnel lighting replacement
  • 12th Ave NE crossing work
  • Signals work between Rundle & Franklin
  • Electrical work
  • and other projects, as time allows.

Thank you for your patience during these closures!
