I-35W &amp; 46th Street stationI-35W &amp; 46th Street station I-35W & 46th Street station I-35W & 46th Street is a centerline bus rapid transit station in Minneapolis, Minnesota which was built as part of the I-35W/Minnesota State Highway 62 Crosstown Commons reconstruction project and opened on December 4, 2010. It is the first full-fledged station to be built as part of the METRO Orange Line, preceding other stations by a few years. Located in the middle of I-35W at East 46th Street, the station is accessed via dedicated busways which branch off of the highway's high-occupancy toll lanes. The station uses a single center platform for passenger  pick-up and drop-off. Buses on the route use the standard right-hand traffic configuration with entrance/exit doors on the right, so the northbound and southbound busways cross over each other immediately north and south of the station so that the doors will face the platform. Northbound riders board and disembark on the west side of the platform while southbound riders do so on the east side of the platform. The station is compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act and has a pair stairway and elevator towers, one on each side of the 46th Street bridge. I-35W
