Cottle station is a light rail station operated by Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA). It is located in the median of State Route 85, near Cottle Road in the southern part of San Jose, California. The station is served by the Blue Line of the VTA light rail system. It was part of the original Guadalupe Line, the first segment of light rail from Santa Teresa to Tasman. It is the nearest light rail station to the Kaiser San Jose Medical Center and the Hitachi Global Storage Technologies campus.
Transit connections
- The station is also served by shuttles to the local Kaiser hospital and to the Hitachi campus.
- The station is about one mile (1.6 km) from Caltrain's Blossom Hill station; since Caltrain only serves this station in peak direction during rush hours, the slower light rail service can be used at other times.
