Price Road - Route 101 and Apache Boulevard is a light rail station on METRO Light Rail in Tempe, Arizona, USA. METRO incorrectly denotes this as Price/101 Freeway and Apache Boulevard although the frontage road is Price Road and the highway is Arizona Route 101, or Loop 101—not the ungrammatical "101 Freeway". It is the second stop westbound on the initial 20 mile starter line. It is the first station of the westbound line within the city of Tempe, and is located a few hundred feet east of Loop 101/Price Freeway. This station is a park and ride station.

Note that no signage currently directs travelers from Route 101 to the station.
