History

The station was opened in 1968, as a stop on Milan-Gorgonzola fast tramway line.[1] Since 4 December 1972 the section from Cascina Gobba to Gorgonzola, where this station is located, was connected to Milan Metro Line 2 and operates as part of it ever since.[2]

Station structure

Elevated structure

The station has two covered platforms and two tracks. It is located on the about 144 meters long viaduct across the Martesana channel.[3] The viaduct was designed by engineer Silvano Zorzi.[4] The passenger building is located in a sort of mezzanine integrated into the structure, under the tracks at the western end of the platforms.[3]

gollark: Since their approach to encouraging more of it in the EU is apparently just to come up with more regulations for it? And not support for startups or offering access to GPU clusters or something actually helpful.
gollark: They are *actually* unironically entirely irrelevant to modern AI stuff and becoming increasingly so.
gollark: Only with a European Parliament law authorising it.
gollark: The EU will have exactly three (3) computers for people to use.
gollark: "Unregulated computers could allow people to process data in violation of the GDPR, or train AI things without reading all 282873 pages of EU regulations, filling out forms, and ensuring they cannot be biased against anyone in any way ever."
