Centre Street S station is a planned and approved CTrain light rail station in Calgary, Alberta, part of the Green Line. Construction was slated to begin in 2024 and finish in 2030 as part of construction phase 1, segment 2A.[1] However the station was deferred as part of a alignment change on July 30, 2024.[2] The station is located in the Beltline, immediately south of downtown Calgary.

The station will be located under 11 Avenue South, near Centre Street South and will have a concourse level above the platform. It will provide access to the urban community's high-density residential, commercial and retail buildings, as well as the Calgary Tower, the Central Library and the Sheldon M.
