Buena Park (Metrolink station)
- Buena Park (Metrolink station)
Buena Park station is a passenger railroad station in Buena Park, California. Construction started in January 2006 and after many frustrating delays, the station officially opened on September 4, 2007. It is located at 8400 Lakeknoll Drive, near the corner of Dale Street and Malvern Avenue, at the center of a transit-oriented development including townhomes and a housing complex owned by the California State University, Fullerton.
Buena Park is the eleventh and northernmost Metrolink station in Orange County, and is served by both the Orange County Line starting in Oceanside in northern San Diego County, and the 91 Line starting in Riverside in the Inland Empire. Both lines continue northwards with service to Los Angeles-Union Station. It is expected to serve over 500 passengers daily.
The station is distinguished by a clock tower nearly 70 feet in height. The station includes a 300-car parking lot and a covered pedestrian overpass to allow passengers to cross from one side of the tracks to the other. Construction is estimated to cost $11 million.
