In the past, during the construction of the cross-Java railway line carried out by Staatsspoorwegen (SS), there were no Kiaracondong and Cikudapateuh stations, let alone Andir, Ciroyom, or Bandung Gudang.

[3] In some literature, such as the SS annual report, this station was built in the past due to the development of Bandung into a major city.

Due to the increasing need for passengers and goods, the Colonial Government decided to build a double-track on the Padalarang–Bandung–Kiaracondong route, which was fully realized.

Steven Anne Reitsma also discussed in detail about this dual track and its effect on the economy of Bandung.

Regarding the second phase of the double track project across Greater Bandung on the Kiaracondong–Gedebage plot which started in 2022, the station embankment is undergoing a major overhaul.
