History

edit

In the original plan this station is named University of Science and Technology station (Chinese: 科技大學站; Portuguese: Estação Universidade de Ciência e Tecnologia), but later adopted the abbreviation as the station name. Building work of this and three other stations in Cotai began in 2012.[1] Although completed in 2016, the opening of the station was delayed due to ongoing work at Taipa line train depot.

The station opened on 10 December 2019 along with the Taipa line.[2]
