This station opens at 6.00am and closes at 11.25pm daily, although during major events, its operating hours are extended.

The station was opened on July 11, 1998, as the phase 2 of the STAR LRT, a 15 km track with 11 stations that was built to serve the northern and southern areas of Kuala Lumpur.

The lower level consists of a shared concourse containing the faregates, ticketing machines, and station control.

The station originally featured a similar design and ambience with other LRT stations, with roofs supported by latticed frames, and white plastered walls and pillars.

The revamp features colourful and vibrant graphics, sports symbolisms, and inspirational quotes installed inside and outside the station, such as on the walls and staircases.
