The new Embassy Suites Hotel was completed in July 2012, which includes 162 suites and 6,000 square feet (560 m 2) of meeting rooms. The development will add 200,000 square feet (19,000 m 2) of restaurant and retail space to complement the existing 1,000,000 square feet (93,000 m 2) of space in the nearby Valley Fair Mall. It is anchored by the West Valley City civic center (with the West Valley City Police Department to the north, the West Valley City Hall and justice court to the east, and the West Valley Branch of the Salt Lake County Library to the west). (The area was previously referred to as City Center.) With the hub at its center, sections of the development are eventually planned for areas to the west, north, and east covering the blocks between West 3500 South, South 2700 West (Constitution Way), West 3650 South (Lancer Way), and about 3000 West. The Airport extension opened on Apand service now continues on from Arena to Airport at the Salt Lake City International Airport (permanently bypassing Salt Lake Central).įairbourne Station is a $500 million 40 acres (16 ha) transit-oriented commercial development that was planned specifically in conjunction with the construction of the West Valley Intermodal Hub. On DecemGreen Line service ended at Arena in preparation for the opening of the airport extension of the Green Line. Initially the Green Line connected to the Salt Lake City Intermodal Hub (Salt Lake Central Station) in Downtown Salt Lake City. The TRAX portion opened for service on Augas part of the West Valley extension of the Green Line. The station opened with bus service only (including the 3500 South MAX) on September 17, 2009. However, it was anticipated that light rail would serve the station in the near future and it was referred to as the West Valley Intermodal Hub anyway. At the time of its opening, the hub was more of a bus depot than an intermodal hub, as construction was not yet complete on the light rail line. When the hub opened on Septemit immediately had service by five local bus routes, in addition to the 3500 South MAX (BRT). More than $7 million of that was paid for by the federal government, with the rest being paid for by local taxes. The entire intermodal hub is operated by the Utah Transit Authority.Ĭonstruction on the West Valley Intermodal Hub began in 2007 and was completed in 2009 at a cost of approximately $9 million.
Further east of the station is the Valley Fair Mall, with a residential neighborhood to the south.
The station is in the middle of the partially completed Fairbourne Station development, which includes several West Valley municipal buildings.
