Moody Centre is a train station in Port Moody, British Columbia. It is located at 65 Williams Street. It is owned by TransLink and is used by the SkyTrain in the Metro Vancouver area for their Millennium Line and by the West Coast Express.

The station was built in 2016 and opened on December 2. When TransLink was building the the Evergreen Extension for the Millennium Line, they decided to start building new stations with Moody Centre being one of them. TransLink hired the architecture firm Francl Architecture to build the station.[1]

Predating the station was the original Port Moody Station which was used by Canadian Pacific Railway as their western terminus. The station closed in 1976.[2] On November 1, 1995, the station for the West Coast Express opened. Shortly after the Evergreen Extension opened, the station was demolished and the West Coast Express was made part of the current station.[3]

It is both an at-grade and enclosed station with two tracks for the SkyTrain and two tracks for the West Coast Express. There is a side platform for the West Coast Express and a centre platform for the SkyTrain. For the SkyTrain, it is preceded by Burquitlam towards VCC–Clark and ends at Inlet Centre towards Lafarge Lake–Douglas. For the West Coast Express, it is preceded by the terminus at Waterfront and ends at Coquitlam Central towards Mission City. In 2024, it was ranked at #48 of the 54 busiest stations in use for the SkyTrain.[4]

The station serves as a connection for the 160, 180, 181, 182, 183, and 184 TransLink bus services.[5]

Around the station is Rocky Point Park, Inlet Park, and Port Moody Station Museum.
