Located within STC is also the Transit Communications Centre (T-Comm) with its Transit Management and Communications System (TMAC), which was introduced in 2008 and serves as the central control and dispatch for the company's fleet across the network.<ref>[https://buzzer.translink.ca/2009/02/a-look-at-t-comm-the-transit-communications-centre/ A Look At T-Comm, The Transit Communications Centre] The Buzzer Blog, retrieved 02-05-2021</ref>

STC is the third yard in the system to have CNG fuelling capabilities, with the others being [[Coast Mountain Bus Company Port Coquitlam Transit Centre|Port Coquitlam Transit Centre]] and [[Coast Mountain Bus Company Hamilton Transit Centre|Hamilton Transit Centre]]. However, STC is the second yard to be retrofitted with CNG fuelling stations as Hamilton was opened with CNG fuelling capabilities. CNG buses were introduced following the completion of fuelling stations in 2018.<ref>[https://buzzer.translink.ca/2018/05/106-new-cng-buses-roll-into-surrey/ 106 New CNG Buses Roll Into Surrey] The Buzzer Blog, retrieved 02-05-2021</ref>

As part of a $12.7 million upgrade, STC was expanded in 2011 with a new fueling facility capable of servicing three buses simultaneously and servicing 60-foot articulated buses in preparation for the [[Coast Mountain Bus Company route 96 'Guildford / Newton Exchange (B-line)'|96 B-Line]]. A new bus wash was also installed to service articulated buses and Community Shuttles that can change the width of the wash to suit different bus sizes using sensors. Maintenance facilities were also expanded and the capacity of the yard was increased from 187 40-foot buses to 300 units.<ref>[https://buzzer.translink.ca/2011/07/upgrades-to-surrey-transit-centre/ Upgrades To Surrey Transit Centre] The Buzzer Blog, retrieved 02-05-2021</ref>
