St. Albert Transit- St. Albert Centre Exchange

The St. Albert Centre Exchange opened on July 24, 2000. Located near the heart of St. Albert, it helped to accommodate an expanding St. Albert Transit by facilitating transfers in a more central location, compared to the rather southerly location of the existing Transit Centre. Along with the new exchange was a completely revised local transit network that included the renumbering of the commuter routes into their own series in the 200's. The former St. Albert Transit Centre was renamed to the Village Tree Station. St. Albert Transit used the "Station" name to denote park and ride space available, while "Exchange" was used to denote a facility only for passengers transferring between buses with no park and ride space. Park and ride space would eventually come to the St. Albert Centre Exchange with about 120 stalls in September 2014.
The layout is very unique for the Edmonton region. River Crest Crescent is a north/ south road that passes through the exchange. Southbound are a number of stops extending as far south as the McDonald's along the sidewalk. Northbound there are two lanes, one lane served by an island platform and  is the northbound through road, and then the second lane is a bus only lane with operator washrooms located next to it.
