The Lakewood Transit Centre, opened in 1982,[9] is located at the South-West side of the neighborhood on Mill Woods Road and 28 avenue. There are no amenities available at this transit centre (no park & ride, drop off areas, washrooms, vending machines, etc...).[10]
Approximately $1.4 million in upgrades to the transit centre were completed in 2017 with $689 thousand in funding provided by the federal government and $344.5 thousand in funding provided by the provincial government.[9]
