Arbutus is a planned underground station on the Millennium Line of Metro Vancouver's SkyTrain rapid transit system.[1][2] It will be located at the northeast corner of the intersection of West Broadway and Arbutus Street in the Kitsilano neighbourhood of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and will be the western terminus of the Millennium Line when completed. It is scheduled to open in 2025.[3][4]
The station will provide a connection to the Arbutus Greenway. Passengers continuing to the University of British Columbia (UBC) will have to transfer to a 99 B-Line bus to continue west along Broadway. As the planned new eastern terminus of the 99 B-Line, the station design includes a bus loop. There have been proposals to extend the Millennium Line all the way to UBC, but as of May 2020[update], funding for that proposal had not been committed.[5] Federal funding was being discussed as of February 2021.[6]
