[edit] Location
The station is located in northern Bogotá, specifically on Avenida Caracas, between Calles 74 and 76.
[edit] History
In 2000, phase one of the TransMilenio system was opened between Portal de la 80 and Tercer Milenio, including this station.
The station is named Calle 76 due to its proximity to the arterial route of the same name.
It serves the demand of the El Retiro and San Felipe neighborhoods. Points of interest near the station include the Unilago technology shopping center and the Centro de Alta Tecnología.
Since its opening, it has been the most congested simple station, receiving over 600,000 users daily. This congestion has been reduced due to the Expreso 140, which began service in February, 2006, alleviating the need of users coming from Autopista Norte to Calle 80 to transfer at this station, notably improving the quality of service.
