Branham is a light rail station in the middle of the Guadalupe Parkway. The station has a single island platform for the two-track line that extends north from the overpass of Branham Lane that provides the station's only entrance. The entrance consists of a concrete elevator shaft that leads to a small walkway followed by a wide staircase that is split into two different staircases by a narrow up escalator. Waiting passengers have a single canopy structure towards the northern end of the platform. This structure has the normal tiled columns. At the very northern end of the platform is an 'Emergency Safety Area' that is just a small area that extends between the tracks (with some concrete bollards). There is a 271 space Park & Ride lot just west of the freeway (there are steps at the southern end of the lot up to Branham Lane to provide the closest access the station) between the freeway and Narvaez Avenue.
