Santa Teresa is a light rail station operated by Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA). This station is the southern terminus of VTA's Alum Rock-Santa Teresa line. It was built in the late 1980s as part of the original Guadalupé Line, the first segment of light rail that stretched to Tasman in northern San Jose.
As with all other stations on the Alum Rock–Santa Teresa line south of the Convention Center station, the Santa Teresa station only provided level boarding at the first door of the lead car via a wooden ramp. VTA planned to close this station from September to November 2008 to allow level boarding at all doors. However, the station remained open during construction through a temporary platform.[1]
