Completed in 1999 under the name "Arroyo del Fresno" (serving the barrio of that name, literally "Ash-tree River"), the station did not open to the public for many years due to the lack of development in the area.[2]
With developments being built nearby, this station opened to public on 23 March 2019.[3]
History
The station was built along with six other stations as part of the expansion of Line 7 from Valdezarza to Pitis. The expansion cost 25 billion pesetas (150 million euros) and was completed in 1999, two months before the regional elections.
