It serves the Las Villas, Ciudad Jardín Norte, Calatrava, and Altos de Chozica neighborhoods.

[edit] History

In 2006, phase two of the TransMilenio system was completed, including the Avenida Suba line, on which this station is located.

The station is named Suba-Avenida Boyacá or Suba Av.Boyacá (by its abbreviation) for being located at the intersection of those two major roads.

It is the first station in the system to be located above grade on a bridge.

In the lower part of the station, where two pedestrian bridges provide access to the station, there is a small plaza where payment for the system is collected. Taking elevators, the passenger is taken from the entry to the platform.
