History

The station was originally constructed as a local train stop on the Northern Main Line (now part of the Ostkustbanan) following an agreement between SJ and AB Norrvikens Villastad. It was opened on 1 May 1907.

A red-brick station building was constructed in 1955, but it was demolished in 1993 when the Ostkustbanan railway was expanded to four tracks.
