It was built in 1985 as part of the original Expo Line.LocationThe station is located in southern Burnaby. It is immediately (130 m) southwest of the intersection of Griffiths Drive and 18th Avenue, near Edmonds Street, a short walk (700 m) south of Kingsway. There are several City in the Park high-rises adjacent to the station as well as plans for more transit-oriented development nearby. SkyTrain's maintenance and storage facility serving both Expo and Millennium lines is one block east of this station, linked to and from the main guideway by multiple switch tracks.Service Edmonds station bus loop provides services to a number of TransLink bus routes serving Burnaby and New Westminster. It replaced the former Edmonds Loop located northeast of the station, at the intersection of Kingsway and Edmonds. Due to the proximity to the maintenance and storage facility, the station serves as the starting point for some early morning eastbound Expo trains toward King George station. The station also serves as a temporary terminus for SkyTrain when trains are taken out of service at the end of morning rush hours.Station informationStation layoutEntrances Main Entrance is located near the northeast end of the platform. It is directly attached to the Westbound platform (Platform 1). Passenger using the Eastbound platform (Platform 2) must go through an overhead walkway to cross the tracks. There is no escalator available for the walkway. Secondary Entrance is located southeast of the main entrance, also on the inbound platform.

This entrance is expected to close after the completion of fare gate construction.
