METRO VANCOUVER — The city of Coquitlam has reached a public-private partnership agreement with the federal government and Coquitlam Centre to build a third station for the Evergreen Line serving Coquitlam’s City Centre area.

Lincoln Station stop will be built at the City Centre of Coquitlam.

The federal government will contribute up to $7 million through the P3 Canada Fund toward the construction. The project will be co-funded through a partnership between the city and Pensionfund Realty Limited, a privately held real estate company. In addition, once selected, a private operator will be required to build and finance the project.
