DescriptionEdit

The station is located at 3070 South 2200 West (Decker Lake Drive) with its island platform being situated in the middle of that street. The station has easy access from the 3100 South cross street. Although fairly near Interstate 215, the nearest interchange for I-215 is at 3500 South (SR-171). The station is just northeast of the Maverik Center (formerly the E-Center). The station has a free Park and Ride lot with total of about 750 parking spaces available. The station opened 7 August 2011 as part of the West Valley extension of the Green Line and is operated by the Utah Transit Authority.

All of UTA's TRAX and FrontRunner trains and stations, streetcars and streetcar stops, and all fixed route buses are compliant with Americans with Disabilities Act and are therefore accessible to those with disabilities. Signage at the stations, on the passenger platforms, and on the trains clearly indicate accessibility options. 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".
