Building and layout
The YIA Airport Rail link train at the station platform

This station only has two railwiay lines with both lines being straight tracks because the branch line to the airport was built on a double track from the start. The line construction to this station has been prepared for the possibility of extending the KRL Yogyakarta Line service to this station (west terminus point). A total of IDR 1.1 trillion was disbursed for this project.[6]

This station is 5.4 km from Kedundang Station and was built elevated. The foundation construction for the branch line and also the station uses slab on pile, supported by piles and tied with capping beams, without using fill soil, hardening, or concrete. This is because the land passed by the railroad is classified as watery (paddy fields).[7]

The station building was built by Angkasa Pura I, has an area of ​​1,500 square metres (0.15 ha) and can accommodate up to 200 passengers. Futuristic in style, this station uses a canopy made of steel and panel walls made of aluminum and glass. The canopy of the station is 300 m long and 20 m wide.[8] This station's signaling system already uses electrical signaling produced by Len Industri which has been installed since mid-2021.
