The Rhine Railway (Karlsruhe–Mannheim) and the high-speed line have been bundled together in this area to reduce environmental impacts, as they have also been at the neighbouring Hockenheim station.

During the construction of the new high-speed line, the Rhine Railway was realigned for a length of 6.60 km (4.10 mi) between Hockenheim and Neulußheim.

It was decided to build an overpass over the tracks of the two railway lines, which accordingly is very long with a length of 108 metres (354 ft).

[9] Deutsche Bahn invested around €135,000 in the renovation of the bridge during 2010 and 2011 and the municipality spent about €50,000 on measures to improve the station environment.

As part of the 2nd stage of the Rhine-Neckar S-Bahn, lifts were installed in the station up to 2015 to give it step-free access.
