Lee–Shaker station

Lee–Shaker station is a station on the RTA Green Line in Shaker Heights, Ohio, located in the median of Shaker Boulevard (Ohio State Route 87) at its intersection with Lee Road, after which the station is named.

History
The station opened on December 17, 1913, with the initiation of rail service on what is now Shaker Boulevard from Coventry Road to Fontenay Road. The line was built by Cleveland Interurban Railroad and initially operated by the Cleveland Railway.

In 1980 and 1981, the Green and Blue Lines were completely renovated with new track, ballast, poles and wiring, and new stations were built along the line. The renovated line along Shaker Boulevard opened on October 11, 1980.

On October 17, 2017, a new station was opened at Lee and Shaker, with two new handicapped ramps, and four new shelters.

Station layout
The station has two side platforms, split across the intersection with Lee Road. Unlike most other stations on the line, Lee–Shaker station has far side platforms with stops taking place after trains cross Lee Road. This allows for left turn pocket lanes on Shaker Boulevard. Each platform has shelter and covered mini-high platforms which allow passengers with disabilities to access trains.
