Davies station is an elevated light rail transit station under construction in Edmonton, Alberta, as part of its Valley Line extension.[2] It is located south-west of the intersection of 75 Street and Wagner Road, in Davies Industrial.[3] The station will be the first elevated rail station utilized by the Edmonton Transit Service, and will include a 1,300 stall park and ride and a new transit centre.[4] The station is scheduled to open in 2022.[4] On January 22, 2018, the Edmonton Arts Council announced a large-scale public art installation, by world-renowned artist Shan Shan Sheng, would become part of Davies station.[5] The Station's wood roof consists of 15,498 individual pieces of timber which were prepared and treated in Edmonton by local businesses.[6]
