Terry Fox Station (OC Transpo)

Terry Fox Station (OC Transpo)

Terry Fox Transitway Station is a bus-stop on Ottawa, Ontario, Canada's transitway served by OC Transpo buses. It is located in the western transitway section and is the main western terminal of Route 96 (some are extended to Stittsville).

It is located adjacent the Kanata Centrum shopping centre at Kanata Avenue and Earl Grey Drive, just east of the Highway 417 exit at Terry Fox Drive. The station entered service in September 2004 with construction still having been underway at that time; it officially opened on February 22, 2005. Before the station's construction, a small terminal was located at Kanata Town Centre, located south of 417 on Katimavik Road.

The station was needed as the Kanata Centrum was getting more and more popular, while the Kanata Town Centre was desolate for several years. Previously, service to the Centrum was very limited, but the construction of the Castlefrank Road/Kanata Avenue interchange and (Valour Bridge) overpass over 417 have permitted for several bus routes to serve the Centrum.

The station also contains a Park & Ride facility.
