The addition of this station and its sister station Ra'anana West will reduce the travel time for Ra'anana and Kfar Saba residents to Tel-Aviv to approximately 11 minutes[2] when the link via Herzliya railway station opens. The two stations were opened on 3 July 2018,[3] and the link via Herzliya is scheduled to open in early 2020.

With only 233,114 passengers recorded in 2019, the station is the least used in the Central District.

A pedestrian bridge above Highway 4 is planned in the future, providing additional access to the station from the southeastern neighborhoods of Ra'anana.
