In 2002, Riverside Public Utilities began building a solar covered carport at the station. The carport was completed in 2003.

Two Metrolink lines serve Riverside – La Sierra: the IEOC Line, which runs daily, and the 91 Line, which runs Monday through Friday.

Riverside Transit Agency Route 15 stops at the station, as does Orange County Transportation Authority Route 794.

RCTC developed plans in the 2000s to build a transit-oriented development (TOD) at the station, enlarge the parking lot, and build improved bus facilities.
