The station, currently the terminus of the line, is located just west of the outlet of the tunnel from Dinegro station.[1] It is built on a viaduct, designed to extend the line to the north, towards a new station. It is the only station above ground.

Designed by architect Renzo Piano, the station's official opening took place on 13 June 1990, and along with Dinegro became one of the first operational stations.
