The site of the station has affected the entire surrounding area by the construction of large concrete pillars to support the elevated metro line, and requiring reorganization of the road network. Under the overhead structure of the tracks and the station there are two long rows of car parking, totaling approximately 1,400 spaces, intended to attract passengers from the nearby communities of Sant'Eufemia della Fonte and Buffalora.
