Zinfandel station is a side platform facility on the SacRT light rail network situated in Rancho Cordova, California, managed by the Sacramento Regional Transit District. This station, which began operations on June 11, 2004, is part of the Gold Line service and lies directly opposite the Rancho Cordova Town Center shopping mall.
Originally, the station was intended to be positioned east of Zinfandel Drive along Folsom Boulevard. However, after appeals from the Rancho Cordova Area Chamber of Commerce to move it nearer to commercial areas, its location was shifted westward. Zinfandel station, together with Cordova Town Center and Sunrise, was inaugurated as a segment of an $89 million extension of the Gold Line east of the Mather Field/Mills station. Officials in Rancho Cordova expect these new transit stops to encourage both transit-oriented development and revitalization efforts along the Folsom corridor.
