Parking
The original station opened in 2006 with 140 parking spots. Within the first year of service, parking was full, and commuters resorted to parking along the sides of the main road as well as alongside the railroad tracks. In response to the need of more parking, MRCOG leased an acre of land from a local landscaping business to create 130 more parking spots in August 2009. This has nearly doubled the amount of parking and has satisfied local homeowners and businesses.
