Description
The station is located at 8021 South Redwood Road (1700 West/SR-68) and is easily accessible from 7800 South (SR-48) by heading south on Redwood Road. There is not access to the station except directly from Redwood Road. The West Jordan city hall, West Jordan courthouse, West Jordan Branch of the Salt Lake County Library, a Jordan School District administration building, and a small commercial area are to the north of the tracks near the station. The area south of the station is mostly residential and, although the station runs along the north side of 8045 South, there is not direct vehicle or pedestrian access to that road. The station has a Park and Ride with about free 220 parking spaces available, but there are plans for a total of about 600 parking spaces. In the original planning stages, the station was referred to as "Redwood Road", but later changed to the current name. The station opened 7 August 2011 as part of the Red Line (Mid-Jordan) 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".
