Services
The station is served by a bus loop with routes including the 97 B-Line, which connects it to Coquitlam Central Station. This and other bus connections to north Burnaby, Port Moody, and Coquitlam area make Lougheed Station a major transportation hub for the area and one of the busiest stations on the Millennium Line.
Due to the shortage of storage tracks at operation and maintenance centre, some trains are stored overnight on tracks near Lougheed station. As a result, the station also serves as the starting point for some early morning and terminus for some late-night trains to/from VCC–Clark and Waterfront stations.
Future connections include the Highway 1 Rapid Bus from Walnut Grove when the new Port Mann Bridge opens, and the Evergreen Line connecting VCC–Clark and Douglas College Station in Coquitlam (which will replace the 97 B-Line). Evergreen Line is scheduled to begin service in summer 2016.

“Those services which the community will most readily pay for, it is most disagreeable to render.”

“It seems I impregnated Marge
So I do rather feel, by and large,
Some cash should be tendered
For services rendered,
But I can’t quite decide what to charge.”
