The Y Griega Station (Spanish: Estación Y Griega) is a station on Line 1 of the Monterrey Metro,[1][2] a light rail system in Monterrey, Mexico.[1] The station was opened on 25 April 1991 as part of the inaugural section of Line 1, going from San Bernabé to Exposición.[3][1][2]

This station is named after the Y-junction that Avenues Colón and Madero make, and its logo represents it in the form of a letter "Y".

The Y Griega station is a major transfer station as many buses that service communities off the Metropolitan area such as Pesquería connect to the Metro system at the Y Griega station. The Y Griega station also serves the Fundidora Park.[4]

This station is in the Acero neighborhood (Colonia Acero) and it is close to Parque Fundidora.[4][5]
