Victoria Park will be a stop on the Region of Waterloo's Ion rapid transit system. It will be located alongside Charles Street, just west of Gaukel Street, in Kitchener. Its namesake, Victoria Park, has its eastern entrance about 100m south of the station along Gaukel. It is scheduled to open in 2018.
The station will serve southbound trains only; the nearest northbound platform will be at Kitchener City Hall station, about 250m away up Gaukel and Young streets.
The station location is presently opposite Gaukel of the Charles St. Transit Terminal, which is the hub of Grand River Transit bus services in Kitchener-Waterloo and also the intercity bus depot. At the launch of Ion LRT, these roles will be reduced as bus service is moved to more of a grid plan; eventually the intercity functions will be moved to the King-Victoria Transit Hub and this terminal should become redundant. The timeline for this transition is still not fully known.
