A focused reference on walkability + transit in Coquitlam Town Centre, drawn from the broader Coquitlam Town Centre area page — pulled out as its own page so it’s scannable on its own.
Three Evergreen Extension SkyTrain stations sit inside the neighbourhood (Lincoln, Lafarge Lake-Douglas, Coquitlam Central — all opened December 2, 2016). SkyTrain to downtown Vancouver via the Millennium Line + Expo Line transfer at Commercial-Broadway is 45–55 minutes from Lafarge Lake-Douglas. SFU (Burnaby Mountain) is reachable by Expo + 145 bus in ~40 minutes; UBC requires multiple transfers.
Coquitlam Central is a West Coast Express stop on the commuter rail line that runs Waterfront ↔ Mission City — weekday peak-only, 5 westbound morning trips into Waterfront Station and 5 eastbound returning, with the line continuing east from Coquitlam Central through Port Coquitlam, Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge, and Mission. For commuters whose workplace sits near Waterfront, WCE compresses the door-to-door time. By car, downtown Vancouver is 35–55 minutes via Highway 1 + the bridges depending on time of day.
