Irvine Transportation Center (also referred to as Irvine Station) is a passenger rail and bus terminal in Irvine, California, United States. Located on the southwest end of the decommissioned Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, it is served by Amtrak California's Pacific Surfliner route, two Metrolink commuter rail lines, and multiple Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) bus routes. FlyAway Bus coach service to Los Angeles International Airport was formerly provided from the station.
The $13 million Irvine Transportation Center opened on June 1, 1990 when Irvine was officially added to the Amtrak timetable as a stop on the route of the San Diegan (later renamed the Pacific Surfliner). On 25 August 2008, a new four-story parking structure was opened to expand available parking at the station by 1,500 spots.
When Amtrak is doing track work on the San Diego Subdivision right-of-way, this is the terminus for the line.
In FY2009, Irvine served about 3,000 total passengers daily for Metrolink and Amtrak.
Irvine served an average of approximately 1,155 Amtrak passengers daily in FY2015.
Several OCTA bus routes operate to the Irvine Transportation Center:
The city of Irvine's iShuttle has two routes that serve the station:
