[edit] History

I-880/Milpitas originally served as the eastern terminus of the Tasman West extension, and so was originally served by trains operating directly from Mountain View. As such, it also served the southern terminus of AC Transit's 217 bus, the only such service that runs into Santa Clara County. Since then, the Tasman East extension and subsequent relining have altered the station's service patterns, and the 217 bus now terminates at Great Mall/Main.

[edit] Location

I-880/Milpitas station is located in the median of Tasman Drive just west of Alder Drive near Interstate 880 in Milpitas, California.
