TransLink says the King George SkyTrain Station will be closed for approximately six weeks starting next month.

A statement says the closure starting April 27th will allow essential maintenance work to happen and the Expo Line in Surrey will temporarily end at Surrey Central Station.

Some of the work will include removing parts of the track, which has been in use since the station first opened 30 years ago.

TransLink says the station will also get new cable installations, elevator inspections, and cleaning.
