Since 2014, the station has upgraded railway signal and railroad switch devices from mechanical to electrical type produced by Len Industri.

[3] Unlike other stations in Surabaya which were built by Staatsspoorwegen (SS) and Oost-Java Stoomtram Maatschappij (OJSM), Surabaya Pasarturi Station was built by the first private railway company in the Dutch East Indies, Nederlandsch-Indische Spoorweg Maatschappij (NIS).

[6] The name "Surabaya Pasarturi" was given since the Railway Department (Indonesian: Djawatan Kereta Api) began to record stations in Indonesia in the 1950s.

Since July 2014, the mechanical signaling system at the station has been replaced with an electric one made by PT Len Industri.

[8] In 2019, the side platform of the station was extended and a canopy was added to support longer passenger trains.
