Jefferson County Government Center–Golden station (JeffCo Gov't Ctr•Golden) is an at-grade light rail stop situated on the W Line within the RTD Rail network. Positioned near the intersection of 6th Avenue and Johnson Road on the premises of the Jefferson County Government Center in Golden, Colorado, this station functions as the western endpoint of the West Corridor.

Inaugurated on April 26, 2013, the station was constructed as part of the Regional Transportation District (RTD) FasTracks initiative, which was financed through a sales tax approved by voters to improve transit options across the Denver metropolitan area.

Amenities at this location include a parking garage with 705 spaces for park-and-ride users and a bus stop served by Golden FlexRide, RTD’s flexible, demand-responsive transit service for the Golden area. Additionally, the station provides bicycle racks and lockers, along with direct access to the 6th Avenue Trail running alongside U.S. Route 6, facilitating seamless multimodal travel for passengers.
