Oakridge is the one intermediate stop on the Almaden Shuttle. The station has a single platform on the east side of a single track. This platform begins at the grade crossing of Blossom River Way and runs north parallel to Winfield Blvd that has 3 short paths across some fenced in green space. The north one is at the same level and has some bike parking and bike racks along the platform, the other two are down hill slightly and have ramps with a couple steps for more direct access for the middle one. The platform has a single canopy structure towards its northern end, this has a tiled column and brown trim line band with Oakridge tiled in white on it. Since there are so many platform exits, the band just says Oakridge and not Exit with an arrow in one or both directions beneath. The Westfield Oakridge, a shopping mall is across Winfield Blvd from the station.
