The area surrounding the station is planned to hold a huge Park&Ride parking, which would service cars, city buses, and long-distance buses. Construction of the station, along with the nearby Chrzanów and Lazurowa metro stations, began in 2022. The opening of the section, consisting of 3 stations and a new depot, is planned for 2026.
