Heritage Station is a light rail station, part of the Calgary CTrain system, located in the community of Haysboro. The station opened on May 25, 1981.

The station has a 557 space park-and-ride lot, a bus loop, and is located southwest of the intersection of Heritage Drive and Macleod Trail S, 7.9 km (4.9 mi) south of the City Hall Interlocking.

The station consists of a centre-loading platform with mezzanine access at the north end, at-grade access at the south end, and a pedestrian bridge that connects communities to the east.

Heritage Park is located 2.1 kilometres (1.3 miles) west of the station. Calgary Transit operates a direct shuttle bus from Heritage Station to the park, known as Route 502.[1]

As part of Calgary Transit's plans to operate four-car trains by the end of 2014, all three-car stations were extended. Construction at Heritage Station to extend the platform to the South started on July 16, 2012, and the new extended platform and ramp access opened on December 10, 2012.

The Haysboro Light Rail Storage Facility is located just south of the station.

Heritage Station recorded 1,142,000 boardings in 2022 – an average of 3,129 boardings per day.[2]
