The station will primarily serve the campus of the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD), which it is 1⁄3 mile (0.54 km) north of, as well as surrounding apartments.[2][4] Plans for the station façade prominently feature UTD's logo, as well as inspirational quotes from UTD alumni.[5]
As part of the construction, nearby Rutford Avenue will be extended north over the railroad corridor. DART will also construct a surface parking lot for the station, though a parking garage built by UTD has been proposed.[6]
