Component is a VTA light rail station in the median of East 1 Street. The stop has two offset side platforms on each side of Component Drive so trains stop on the far side of the intersection. Component Drive is the only way to legally access each platform although jaywalking to the other ends of the platform is easy and often done with minimal emergency exit signage and no gate. The streetside of each platform has a Jersey barrier with a blue railing. The northbound platform has no coverings for waiting passengers. There are just some benches and an exposed to the elements TVM and Clipper Card readers. Both platforms have plenty of trees. The southbound platform has a single standard blue canopy held up by two tiled pillars that have Component in white written on brown tile.
