South Jordan is an island platform station in South Jordan, Utah, United States served by FrontRunner, Utah Transit Authority's (UTA) commuter rail that operates along the Wasatch Front from Pleasant View in northern Weber County through Ogden, Davis County, Salt Lake City, and Salt Lake County to Provo in central Utah County. It is part of the FrontRunner South extension.
The South Jordan Station (or Sandy/South Jordan as it was referred to by UTA in the original planning stages) is located just west of I-15 at 10351 South Jordan Gateway and is accessed from either 10000 South or 10600 South (SR-151, also known as South Jordan Parkway). (An official UTA map incorrectly indicates the Station is on South Jordan Parkway, rather than South Jordan Gateway.) The Station has a free Park and Ride lot with about 575 parking spaces available.[2] Though the Station is in South Jordan and its surroundings to the west are now undergoing greenfield development, it is also fairly close to Sandy's South Towne Center mall, which is just across I-15 to the east. Further north of the Station is Salt Lake Community College's Miller Campus. The Station is located within the Quiet Zone, so trains do not routinely sound their horns when approaching public crossings within this corridor.[3]
FrontRunner has about 25 round trips on weekdays between Ogden and Provo (through Salt Lake City). Trains run hourly from about 4:30 am to just after midnight on weekdays (increasing to half hour runs for the morning and evening commutes). Saturdays have hourly runs from about 6:00 am to 1:30 am the next morning. There is currently no FrontRunner service on Sundays. Each weekday there is service to Pleasant View with two trains picking up passengers in the morning and two more dropping off passengers in the evening for the commute.[4]
