4800 W Old Bingham Hwy[1] is a light rail station in the Welby neighborhood of West Jordan, Utah, United States serviced by the Red Line of the Utah Transit Authority's (UTA) TRAX light rail system. The Red Line provides service from the University of Utah to the Daybreak Community of South Jordan.

Description

The station is located at 4773 West Old Bingham Highway and is easily accessible from Old Bingham Highway. The station has a three free Park and Ride lots with total of 244 parking spaces available.[1] Two of the Park and Ride lots are long and thin in order to fit entirely within the wide preexisting railroad right-of-way, so some spaces are quite far from the platform. These two lots run southwest and northeast away from the platform along the south side of Old Bingham Highway. The third lot in on the northeast corner of 4800 West and Old Bingham Highway and is accessible via 4800 West. This lot also includes the station's bus stops.[3] It is in a low-density residential area, with a park a short distance south on 4800 West. The station opened 7 August 2011 as part of the Red Line (Mid-Jordan) and is operated by the Utah Transit Authority.[2]

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.[4] 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".[5]
