River Trail station is a light rail station in West Valley City, Utah, in the United States, served by the Green Line of the Utah Transit Authority's (UTA) TRAX light rail system. The Green Line provides service from the Salt Lake City International Airport to West Valley City (via Downtown Salt Lake City).
Description
The station is located at 2340 South 1070 West (Winston Street) with its island platform being situated in the middle of that street. The station has easy access from the 21st South Freeway and Redwood Road (1700 West/SR-68) by heading east on 2320 North, but there is no access to the station from the east. The station is located in the middle of a low-density business park, just west of the Jordan River. The surrounding business park is isolated by the 21st South Freeway to the north and unbridged floodplains of the Jordan River to the south and east (though pedestrians and bicyclists can travel north or south on the namesake of the station, the Jordan River Parkway trail). UTA indicates the station has 100 free Park and Ride spaces available.{{cite web|url=http://www.rideuta.com/mc/?page=TRAX-TRAXParkingandStops|title=TRAX Parking and Stops|website=rideuta.com|publisher=Utah Transit Authority|accessdate=6 Apr 2013}} However, no parking is allowed on Sundays at this station.{{cite web|url=http://www.letsrideuta.com/2013/06/26/uta-offers-free-multi-day-parking|title=UTA Offers Free Multi-Day Parking|website=rideuta.com|publisher=Utah Transit Authority|date=26 Jun 2013|accessdate=19 Jul 2013}} 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.{{cite news|url=http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700069890/2011-completion-date-for-two-TRAX-lines-announced.html?s_cid=rss-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101017220256/http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700069890/2011-completion-date-for-two-TRAX-lines-announced.html?s_cid=rss-30|url-status=dead|archive-date=October 17, 2010|title=2011 completion date for two TRAX lines announced|first=Steve|last=Fidel|newspaper=Deseret News|publisher=Deseret Digital Media|location=Salt Lake City|date=1 Oct 2010|accessdate=7 Mar 2013}}
