LBJ/Central Station is a DART Light Rail station located in the Lake Highlands area of Dallas, Texas (USA) at T.I. Boulevard and Markville Drive near the High Five Interchange where Interstate 635 (LBJ Freeway) and US 75 (North Central Expressway) meet. It opened 1 July 2002 and is a station on the Red Line, serving the headquarters of Texas Instruments, offices of Raytheon Company, and nearby Richland College.

The columns supporting the station's roof have circuit boards embedded inside, owing to the area's prominence as a technology hub.[1] The station is located across Interstate 635 from Texas Instruments.
