Building and layout
The emplacement of the station (9 May 2012)

The station has four railway lines with lines 2 and 3 being straight tracks. The length of the station's platform is only about three-quarters of the standard platform because on the west side there is a level crossing of Jalan Raya Lemahabang, similar to those at Gedangan and Cilame Stations. As a result, when a train stops, part of its chain will cover the crossing. Later on, the road located to the west will be built with an underground tunnel or overpass so that the series of trains do not block the level crossing (highway), and cut the travel time of the two transportation systems. Currently the underground tunnel project is included in the master plan of the Bekasi Regency Government.[3]

To the west of the 4 station line there is a branch to Jababeka's Cikarang Dry Port for container transportation from Pasoso Station, Sungai Lagoa, or JICT Tanjung Priok. This train has been operating since late 2012.[3][4]

Since December 2021, the old electrical signaling system produced by Alstom has been replaced with a new one produced by PT Len Industri.[5]
