Description
The station is located at 1250 South State Street (SR-126) on approximately 73 acres of land and has easy access from I-15 by either 700 South (SR-193) or West Antelope Drive (SR-108). It is located between the Freeport Center and I-15 and south-west of Hill Air Force Base, 2.75 miles (4.43 km) west of the South Gate. It was anticipated to provide commuter service to the approximately 22,600 employees at Hill Air Force Base and the approximately 8,500 employees at the Freeport Center. The station is also within walking distance of the Clearfield City offices, North Davis Junior High School, and Clearfield High School.
The station has a free Park and Ride lot with about 560 parking spaces available. The station is located within the Quiet Zone, so trains do not routinely sound their horns when approaching public crossings within this corridor. The inaugural FrontRunner train departed the station southbound at 9:00 am 26 April 2008. The Station is operated by Utah Transit Authority.
All of UTA's TRAX and FrontRunner trains and stations, as well as all fixed route buses, are compliant with Americans with Disabilities Act and are therefore accessible to those with disabilities. Since not all FrontRunner passenger cars are wheelchair accessible, signage at the stations, on the passenger platforms, and on the passenger cars clearly indicate accessibility options. In addition, each train has one or more Train Hosts available to provide assistance as may be needed, including the placement of ramps for wheelchair boarding. In accordance with the Utah Clean Air Act and UTA ordinance, "smoking is prohibited on UTA vehicles as well as UTA bus stops, TRAX stations, and FrontRunner stations".
