Description
The station is located on the campus of the University of Utah at 1790 East South Campus Drive with the island platform situated in the middle of that street. Northeast of the station is the Jon M. Huntsman Center and immediately south of the station is the LDS Institute of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Unlike many TRAX stations, University South Campus does not have a Park and Ride lot, however, the LDS Church allows parking at the LDS Institute parking garage southeast of the Station for those who purchase a $22.00 Transit Parking Pass. The station opened on 29 September 2003 and is operated by the Utah Transit Authority.
All of UTA's TRAX and FrontRunner trains and stations, as well as all fixed route buses, are compliant with Americans with Disabilities Act and are therefore accessible to those with disabilities. Signage at the stations, on the passenger platforms, and on the trains clearly indicate accessibility options. In accordance with the Utah Clean Air Act and UTA ordinance, "smoking is prohibited on UTA vehicles as well as UTA bus stops, TRAX stations, and FrontRunner stations".

Famous quotes containing the word description:
“Do not require a description of the countries towards which you sail. The description does not describe them to you, and to- morrow you arrive there, and know them by inhabiting them.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Everything to which we concede existence is a posit from the standpoint of a description of the theory-building process, and simultaneously real from the standpoint of the theory that is being built. Nor let us look down on the standpoint of the theory as make-believe; for we can never do better than occupy the standpoint of some theory or other, the best we can muster at the time.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“An intentional object is given by a word or a phrase which gives a description under which.”
