This station opened on March 5, 2016, as part of Phase 2A of the Gold Line Foothill Extension Project, and served as the northern terminus of the A Line until the line was extended to Pomona on September 19, 2025.[6]

Due to heavy rain in March 2016, the previously delayed underpass construction on North Citrus Avenue was flooded. The Citrus Avenue extension and underpass were finally opened in September 2016.
