History

Columbia Station was built in 1989 as a temporary terminus of the first extension of the Expo Line before it would be extended to Scott Road the following year, after the completion of the new Skybridge.

The station itself is located underground in the centre of New Westminster, and since 2002, has been used as the major transfer point between the Expo Line and the Millennium Line.
