City College is a side platformed Sacramento RT light rail station on the Sacramento City College campus in Sacramento, California, United States. The station was opened on September 26, 2003, and is operated by the Sacramento Regional Transit District. It is served by the Blue Line.
The station is located northeast of Charles C. Hughes Stadium on campus. In addition to serving the college this station also serves William Land Park and Curtis Park. This 60-foot (18 m) wide station provides bus service, drop-off areas, and walkways to the stadium, campus, and parking lots.[2]
Altamont Corridor Express and San Joaquin services are planned to stop at the station when those lines are extended to Sacramento.[3] A new platform will be constructed along the main line by 2023 to facilitate the commuter rail and inter-city trains.[4]
