The station will be enclosed with transparent glass on the outside, to protect passengers from the weathers elements.[2] On the exterior, the station will have only one station vestibule, with a parking lot for the station's workers included.[2] The stations entire length will be 132lk=onNaNlk=on, while its platform will have a width of 13.5m (44.3feet).[2]
