Churchill station on the Valley Line
Churchill is a station on the Valley Line of the Edmonton LRT.
Churchill is also the one place the rest of the network meets the Valley Line: it is about a 4-minute walk across the plaza between the underground station and the street-level Churchill stop.
On weekdays the first Valley Line train leaves Churchill at about 5:17 am and the last at about 1:31 am. At the morning rush trains come every 5 minutes; at midday, every 10. There is no overnight LRT — ETS runs OWL night buses once the trains stop.
Like every station on the Edmonton LRT, Churchill is step-free: there are elevators or ramps from street level to the platform, and the trains are level with the platform edge.
A ride from here costs $3.00 — one flat fare, the same however far you go and wherever you tap on. It buys you 90 minutes of travel, so any transfers to another train or a bus within that window are free.
