The station opened on 19 December 1980, when RER Line A was extended to Torcy.[3] It serves the Descartes campus of the University of Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée. Bus stations are on both ends of platforms: Champy is on Noisy-le-Grand side, Descartes on the Champs-sur-Marne side.
As of 2019[update], the estimated annual attendance by the RATP Group was 5,614,935 passengers.[4]
