Location

Sonoma County Airport station is a Sonoma–Marin Area Rail Transit train station in Santa Rosa, 1.1 miles (1.8 km) east of Charles M. Schulz–Sonoma County Airport. It opened to preview service on July 1, 2017;[3] full commuter service commenced on August 25, 2017. Phase 1 was originally to extend only to Santa Rosa North, but in 2013 the MTC approved the addition of the airport station adjacent to the SMART Operations and Maintenance Facility.[4]

The station was closed between October 28 and 31, 2019[5] due to the loss of power at railway crossings as a result of the 2019 California power shutoffs.[6][7]
