History

The station was completed on March 15, 2006, but it opened for service on February 7, 2005 while still under construction because GO Transit needed to alleviate parking shortages at Brampton GO Station, and also needed to serve the nearby community.[4]

Connections

The station has two bus terminals; a nine-bay bus loop serving both GO buses and Brampton Transit buses on the south side, and a second with four bays on the north side used exclusively by Brampton Transit buses.
