Clear Creek/Federal station—occasionally presented as Clear Creek•Federal—is a Regional Transportation District (RTD) commuter rail stop on the G Line, situated within the unincorporated area of Berkley, Colorado. It lies between Denver Union Station and Wheat Ridge. Located just east of Federal Boulevard on an elevated track segment, this station is the third outbound from Denver Union Station along the Gold Line route. The site features two side platforms, three bus bays, and a park-and-ride facility accommodating 283 vehicles. Service began on April 26, 2019.

During the planning phase, officials from Adams County suggested moving the station to the west side of Federal Boulevard to benefit a property developer; however, RTD selected the east side location. Although this choice necessitated environmental remediation of industrial land, it was intended to promote revitalization efforts in the vicinity.

The station is home to RTD’s most extensive public art installation: a 374-foot hand-painted mural titled "Doradus," created by Addison Karl and displayed along the embankment wall. Adjacent to the station, a significant transit-oriented development covering 22 acres is set to open simultaneously, comprising up to 1,125 housing units and nearly 250,000 square feet designated for commercial use.
