Bussero is a suburban station on Line 2 of the Milan Metro in the municipality of the same name.
History
The station was opened in 1968, as a stop on Milan-Gorgonzola fast tramway line.[1] It was one of four stations not included in the original project (together with Cascina Burrona, Villa Fiorita and Villa Pompea).[2] Since 4 December 1972 the section from Cascina Gobba to Gorgonzola, where this station is located, was connected to Milan Metro Line 2 and operates as part of it ever since.[3]
Station structure
The station has two concrete platforms, covered with translucent panels, and two tracks.[4] Passenger building is located at the northern end of the platforms.[5] The station is built entirely of prefabricated elements and its structure is similar to that of the stations of Cascina Burrona, Villa Fiorita and Villa Pompea, constructed at the same time.
