History

edit

The contract to build the final section of the M2 line was signed in 2018, with Gülermak being chosen as the ones to build it. The area surrounding the station is planned to hold a huge Park&Ride parking, which would service cars, city buses, and long-distance buses. Construction of the station, along with the nearby Chrzanów and Lazurowa metro stations, began in 2022. The opening of the section, consisting of 3 stations and a new depot, is planned for 2026.
