History
The station commenced operations on July 26, 1981, as part of the original 15.9-mile "South Line" segment of the San Diego Trolley network, which extended from San Ysidro to downtown San Diego using the tracks of the San Diego and Arizona Eastern Railway.
Although the Trolley Renewal Project initially scheduled renovations for September 2014, work actually began in October 2014. The station was subsequently reopened in March 2015, showcasing a modernized platform design. In 2024, proposals are being evaluated to transform the existing park and ride area into residential apartments, representing a notable example of transit parking spaces being repurposed for housing within the San Diego Trolley system.
