The station will be directly south of 16 Avenue North in the community of Crescent Heights. It is planned to be a low-profile urban station with curb height platforms, at-grade boarding, and will be in the median of Centre Street.

The station will not include a park and ride. The area surrounding the station is instead expected to be redeveloped with high-density transit oriented development.[3]
