Location
The King George Station is located in Surrey City Centre at the corner of King George Highway and 100th Ave, just north of the western terminus of the Fraser Highway. The station sits on the edge of a large empty lot intended for use by commuters. The station has also recently spurred a series of mixed-use condominiums nearby.
History
The King George Station was built in 1994 as part of the second extension of the Expo Line into Surrey; the other stations included on this extension were Gateway and Surrey Central. In contrast to Surrey Central, the King George station is less busy. Since opening in 1994, it has been the eastern terminus of the Expo Line. The tracks actually continue beyond the station for about a block before they terminate; plans call for the line to eventually be extended deeper into Surrey following the Fraser Highway, however to date no firm timeline for construction has been established, given that other mass-transit construction projects in Greater Vancouver now under way have been given priority.
Services
The King George Station is a major connection point for the TransLink bus routes in Surrey, Langley, and White Rock.
