Once the railway was completed, in 1995, regional rail service from Çiğli station in İzmir began.

With the revision of the commuter rail project, a new tunnel was to be built in Karşıyaka, leading to the temporary closure of the railway within the city in 2006.

In anticipation for new İZBAN commuter rail service, a parking lot and bus station was added, along with turnstiles, an information desk and PIS boards.

The station building is located on the west side, along with a parking lot for employees and a bus stop for ESHOT buses.
