History

In 2021, plans were released for three buildings of up to 21, 17 and nine storeys to be built above the station.[3] The approved buildings are slightly smaller in scale than the initial proposal, in response to residents' concerns about overdevelopment.[3]

The station opened on 19 August 2024.[4][5][6]
