The Zapopan Centro metro station is the fifteenth station in Line 3 of the Guadalajara urban rail system, south-east to north-west, and the fourth in the opposite direction.[1]

This station is located in the zone where Av. Juan Pablo II in Zapopan branches west through Av. Manuel Ávila Camacho and south through Av. Américas. Under the station a vehicular underpass was opened in 13 January 2018 after being under construction for 3 years. The objective of the underpass was to speed up car traffic in the zone.[2]

Grupo Editorial Reforma revealed that groundwater tables invaded by the construction in this zone could explain the delay in the development of the infrastructure.[3]

The station logotype is a stylized picture of the Basílica de Zapopan entrance.
