History

The station was opened in 1968, and initially was a stop on the Milan-Gorgonzola fast tramway line.[2] Since 4 December 1972 the section from Cascina Gobba to Gorgonzola, where this station is located, was connected to Milan Metro Line 2 and has operated as part of it ever since.[3][4]

Station structure

The station has two covered platforms and two tracks. The passenger building is located on either side of the tracks, at the western end of the platforms.[5] The station is built in the trench of an old bed of the Naviglio Martesana channel, diverted approximately 200 meters to the north.[6]
