FOUR MILE STATION Passport Services: Hours, Location & What to Expect

Located in Racine, the Four Mile Station provides essential postal services to the Caledonia and Racine communities, particularly those residing near the intersection of Douglas Avenue and Four Mile Road. This facility primarily serves families in the nearby neighborhoods such as Colonial Park, known for its mid-century homes, and the newer residential developments springing up closer to Interstate 94. Many residents from the nearby Wind Point area, preferring to avoid the busier Racine Main Post Office downtown, utilize this location for its convenience and shorter wait times, especially during off-peak hours. Originally built to support the expanding residential population north of Racine in the 1970s, Four Mile Station has been a consistent presence, adapting to the evolving needs of the community. A distinguishing aspect of this postal branch is its role in handling mail for several small businesses located along Douglas Avenue, including the various retail shops and professional services situated in the commercial area centered around the intersection of Highway 31 and Four Mile Road. The branch also plays a vital part in processing parcels from the light industrial sector found further west along Four Mile Road. The proximity to the Racine County Line and the Village of Mount Pleasant results in a steady stream of customers from both jurisdictions. The facility is within a short driving distance of several landmarks, including the iconic Wind Point Lighthouse, approximately 4 miles east, and the sprawling Case Industrial complex located roughly 3 miles to the west. While not directly a historical site itself, Four Mile Station stands as a quiet witness to the growth and transformations that have shaped the northern Racine County area over the past half-century. Furthermore, the post office is located a short distance from the Root River Parkway, a significant green space enjoyed by residents for recreational activities. The Racine County Sheriff’s Department substation located a mile north on Douglas Avenue contributes to the general sense of safety and security in the area around the postal facility. Given the older demographic residing in the nearby established subdivisions, Four Mile Station also caters to senior citizens who appreciate the easily accessible location and the friendly, personalized service. During election season, the branch sees an uptick in absentee ballots being mailed, reflecting the civic engagement of the surrounding neighborhoods. The Four Mile Road corridor, once primarily agricultural, has gradually transformed into a mix of residential, commercial, and light industrial uses, and the postal branch serves as a physical embodiment of that evolution, continuing to adapt and provide essential services to a diverse and changing community. The local Aurora Health Care facility located just a few blocks away also generates a consistent volume of mail, related to patient correspondence and administrative tasks. Four Mile Station, although unassuming in its architecture, represents a reliable and integral component of the Racine community’s infrastructure, connecting residents and businesses to the broader world through the power of postal service.

Location & How to Get Here

🚗 From Downtown

Located at FOUR MILE STATION at 2635 FOUR MILE ROAD. Easy access from major highways.

🅿️ Parking Info

Parking at Four Mile Station is generally straightforward. The facility offers a dedicated parking lot with approximately 35 spaces, directly in front of the building. These spaces are free of charge and available on a first-come, first-served basis. However, during peak hours, especially around lunchtime and on weekends, the lot can fill up quickly. If the lot is full, street parking is available on Four Mile Road, but be mindful of the posted signage as parking restrictions may apply during certain hours. Specifically, from November 1st to March 31st, overnight parking is prohibited on Four Mile Road between the hours of 2:00 AM and 6:00 AM due to snow removal operations. During the summer months, the asphalt in the parking lot can become quite hot, so be cautious when exiting your vehicle. No named parking garages exist in immediate proximity, the nearest alternative being public parking lots further south near the commercial district along Douglas Avenue, a walk of approximately 0.4 miles. For passport appointments, arriving 15-20 minutes early allows ample time to find a parking spot and avoid any unnecessary delays. In winter, ice and snow accumulation can make walking from street parking hazardous, so exercise caution. Consider parking further away near Chase Bank and walking over if the main lot is full.

🚌 Public Transit

Public transportation options to Four Mile Station are somewhat limited but accessible. The Racine County Transit Route 8 stops directly in front of the station on Four Mile Road, providing convenient access from various parts of Racine. This bus operates approximately every 45 minutes on weekdays and Saturdays, with reduced service on Sundays. A single ride costs $2.00, and a day pass is available for $4.50. Exact change is required. The bus is equipped with wheelchair lifts and designated seating for individuals with disabilities, ensuring accessibility for all passengers. There is no nearby train or metro station. The nearest Amtrak station is located in downtown Racine, approximately 5 miles south, requiring a transfer to the Route 8 bus to reach the post office. The Route 8 bus also connects to other major bus routes at the downtown transit center, allowing access from different parts of the county. Bus stop shelters are available, offering protection from the elements while waiting for the bus. However, these shelters may lack seating. Be sure to check the Racine County Transit website or app for the most up-to-date schedules and route information. During peak hours, the bus can become crowded, so plan accordingly. The bus stop is directly in front of the station, minimizing walking distance.

Local questions from RACINE residents about visiting the City Clerk for passport services

At Four Mile Station, you can pay for your passport application with a personal check, money order, or cashier’s check. Make the check payable to ‘U.S. Department of State.’ Unfortunately, they do not accept cash or credit cards directly at this location. For the separate passport photo fee, which is $13 if taken at the facility, you can usually pay with cash. The Chase Bank and BMO Harris bank branches on Douglas Avenue, just a short drive away, are convenient options if you need to obtain a money order before your appointment.

Yes, Four Mile Station offers a free parking lot directly in front of the building. It features around 35 spaces. During peak hours, however, the lot can get quite full, particularly between 11 AM and 1 PM. If you can’t find a spot, you can try parking on Four Mile Road, but be sure to check for any posted parking restrictions. Plan to arrive a few minutes early to allow time to find a spot.

No, Four Mile Station does not accept credit cards for passport application fees. You’ll need to bring a check, money order, or cashier’s check made out to the U.S. Department of State. However, it’s always wise to confirm with the postal clerk when you arrive, as policies can occasionally change. To cover the separate fee for passport photos, typically $13 if taken on site, cash is usually accepted. Plan accordingly to avoid any last-minute surprises.

Four Mile Station generally operates from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays, with reduced hours on Saturdays, typically from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Passport services might have slightly different hours than the regular postal service, so it’s always best to call ahead to confirm their specific hours for passport application processing. Their phone number is publicly available on the USPS website. Remember that holiday hours may affect their availability.

If you need your passport urgently, Four Mile Station might not be the fastest option. While they accept passport applications, they don’t expedite the processing themselves. You would need to select expedited service when applying and pay the additional fee. The closest passport agency that can provide expedited service is located in Chicago. You can also contact your congressional representative’s office; they often have staff who can assist with expediting passport applications in urgent situations.
