Facility Overview
The West Jordan Soccer Complex NW Parking Lot is a dedicated open-air surface parking facility serving the northwest section of the expansive West Jordan Soccer Complex in West Jordan, Utah. Positioned immediately adjacent to multiple competition-grade soccer and multi-use athletic pitches, this spacious surface lot provides hassle-free direct access for players, coaches, referees, and spectators. Designed to accommodate typical suburban athletic traffic, the lot features wide driving aisles and standard asphalt bays. Because it is a completely open-air ground-level facility with no overhead clearance gates or low ceilings, it is fully accessible for standard passenger vehicles, oversized pickup trucks, full-size family SUVs, passenger team vans, and vehicles equipped with roof racks or gear boxes.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Situated within the athletic corridor of West Jordan, this lot places visitors right on the edge of major community recreation grounds and minutes away from local shopping and dining districts:
- West Jordan Soccer Complex: Direct on-site foot access to tournament soccer fields, team warm-up zones, and spectator seating areas.
- Ron Wood Family Soccer Complex & Regional Park: Located just a brief drive away, offering additional ball diamonds, splash pads, and dog park amenities.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
The facility is readily accessible via major local arterials including 4000 West, 7800 South, and 8200 South, connecting efficiently to Bangerter Highway (UT-154) and the Mountain View Corridor (UT-85). Ingress and egress are straightforward via marked access lanes; however, during large youth weekend tournaments, traffic can become concentrated at game changeover intervals. Public transit users can connect via Utah Transit Authority (UTA) bus routes along major corridors, though driving and rideshares remain the most convenient way to reach the athletic fields with heavy sports equipment.
