The station's design had to be shrunk after complaints from residents. [2] The new northern section of line 3, which includes the station, is the most difficult part of the construction project. Completion could take ten years. [3] In June 2023, Beliris asked for help from the Belgian Government, following a series of delays and cost overruns. [4] As of December 2022, construction of the new line was expected to be complete in 2032.
