Jordan Valley is a station designed to bring transit oriented development to a community that has the parking amenities but no real development yet. It is a stop where parking two parking garages (that seemed almost completely empty in the middle of a weekday) with a daily rate of $1.00 have been built on vacant land. At the main entrance to the station access roads at S 2300 W no one has bothered to remove the Future Station Site Mid-Jordan TRAX sign. The access roads to the station's parking garages do continue to other places including First Med Urgent Car. This ac cess road first leads to one road that makes a loop around one of the stations parking garages with four stories and has the station's bus stops (with little canopies for two lines) with the eastern grade crossing to the island platform. This island platform has the standard two canopies and the western grade crossing leads to a temporary concrete path to the station's other, slightly smaller parking garage. The track here is directly alongside W 8575 S north of it but there is no station access from that road. The parking garages are of a simple cinderblock design and that grey concrete color with blocks showing.
