Location

UTC Transit Center is a San Diego Trolley station and transportation hub in the University City district of San Diego, California. It is located at Westfield UTC mall. The station's elevated trolley platform is served by the Blue Line, and stands above Genesee Avenue at its intersection with Esplanade Court. Its at-grade bus plaza is built into the lower level of one of the mall's parking structures that includes 333 spaces that can be used by transit customers who pay an hourly fee.

Bus service began at the transit center on October 27, 2017, and trolley service began four years later on November 21, 2021, as the new terminus of the Blue Line; it was constructed as part of the Mid-Coast Trolley extension project.
