[11][12] In September 2014 it was announced that local officials were considering a new station along the CapeFlyer route in Bourne for the 2015 season.

[14] In February 2015, it was announced that station construction would be delayed for one year, due to the amount of winter snow and local unease over the project.

While initial plans for a fully constructed station were not realized, a prefabricated section of high-level platform was installed in May 2019 at the Bourne Bridge site,[19] which the CapeFlyer began serving shortly after completion.

Parking areas are not provided, as the station is primarily intended for train passengers to be picked up or dropped off.
