South Keys station is the southernmost station of the Southeast Transitway in Ottawa.[1] The station is located in the South Keys neighbourhood, behind the south end of the South Keys Shopping Centre, and between Bank Street and the Airport Parkway. The Transitway station was opened for bus service on September 2, 1995.

Previously, City Council approved the addition of an O-Train station at South Keys (instead of Lester) in conjunction of the expansion of the north–south light rail line. The project was cancelled on December 14, 2006. In 2024, an O-Train station will open next to the existing Transitway station, serving as the transfer point between the Trillium Line and the Airport Link.[2][3]
