Lehi is a station in Lehi, 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. The Station is also referred to as Thanksgiving Point Commuter Rail Station by UTA. It is part of the FrontRunner South extension.

The Station is located within the Thanksgiving Point business park at 3101 North Ashton Boulevard and is easily accessed from I-15 by way of the Timpanogos Highway (SR-92/Club House Drive) interchange. To reach the Station, head west from I-15 on Timpanogos Highway, then turn left (south) onto Ashton Boulevard. The Station has a free Park and Ride lot with over 735 parking spaces available.[2] Since the Union Pacific (UP) railroad tracks separate the passenger platform from the parking lot and bus stops, there is a pedestrian underpass that allows passengers to cross under the UP tracks. There is also another pedestrian underpass for Garden Drive that connects with the Jordan River Parkway Trail. While there are many professional office buildings nearby the Station in the business park, there are currently very limited retail options in close proximity. The Station is located within the Quiet Zone, so trains do not routinely sound their horns when approaching public crossings within this corridor.[4]

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.[5]
