Map

Seaport Village is where the Green and the Silver lines split. The Silver Line turns east towards America Plaza as part of its clockwise circular route around downtown San Diego, while the Green Line moves north towards Santa Fe Depot on its route through Old Town Transit Center to east county and Santee.

The station was closed from July 9[4] through October 8, 2012[5] to undergo renovations as part of the Trolley Renewal Project.[6]

On September 2, 2012, service to this station by the Orange Line was replaced by the Green Line as part of a system redesign.[7]
