The station is located in northern Bogotá, specifically on Autopista Norte with Calle 125 C.

It serves the Santa Barbara, Cordoba Niza, Santa Coloma, and Tierralinda neighborhoods. It is the nearest station to the shopping districts of Avenida Calle 127 (Avenida Rodrigo Lara Bonilla) and Avenida Carrera 19.

[edit] History

After the opening of the Portal de Usme in early 2001, the Autopista Norte line was opened. This station was added as a northerly expansion of that line, which was completed with the opening of the Portal del Norte later that year.

The station is named Calle 127 due to its proximity to that road.
