Southland Station is a Calgary C-Train light rail station in Southwood, Calgary, Alberta. It serves the South Line (Route 201) and opened on May 25, 1981, as part of the original line. The station is located on the exclusive LRT right of way (adjacent to CPR ROW), 9.5 km (5.9 mi) south of the City Hall interlocking at Southland Drive.^[1]

The station is located in the far northeast of the Southwood community, along the border with Haysboro and Acadia. The station is located directly south of Southland Drive SW—where the station gets its name; and roughly 350 metres west of Macleod Trail.

The station consists of a center-loading platform with mezzanine access on the North end and grade-level access at the South end. 650 spaces are available for parking at the station.

In 2005, the station registered an average transit of 10,500 boardings per weekday.^[2]

On July 12, 2016, a flash flood occurred at Southland Park and Ride. This flash flood flooded with high water marks on some cars above the headlights of the cars causing water ingress into engines and car interiors.
