The station is located near Bachman Lake and the interchange between I-35E and Loop 12. The station serves both the {{DART G}} and {{DART O}}. It is the northernmost station to serve both lines; the Green Line continues north to Carrollton, while the Orange Line continues northwest to Las Colinas and Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.
DART's Northwest Rail Operating Facility is located between Bachman and Walnut Hill/Denton station, which means that some trips terminate at the station to allow vehicles to exit service.
{{As of|2025|May}}, the station has the highest ridership of all DART rail stations outside of Downtown Dallas, with an average of 2,111 riders on weekdays, 1,628 riders on Saturdays, and 1,457 riders on Sundays.<ref name="Ridership">{{Cite web |date=May 2025 |title=Dallas Area Rapid Transit Reference Book, Version 16.0 |url=https://dartorgcmsblob.dart.org/prod/docs/default-source/dart-facts/2025-dart-reference-book.pdf |access-date=2025-07-10 |website=Dallas Area Rapid Transit |pages=32-36}}</ref>
