Milan Rogoredo railway station

Milan Rogoredo railway station

Milan Rogoredo Station (in Italian, Stazione di Milano Rogoredo or Milano Rogoredo) is an important railway node of Milan.The station was known since 1891 as a junction to the old cargo station of Milano Sempione, and became a cargo station itself in 1908. In fact, it worked as the station for the then-autonomous town of Rogoredo, today included in the city administration as part of Milan's southeastern border with San Donato Milanese.

The next step, to passenger station, came in the late 1950s, when the city of Milan started to grow faster, and the neighbourhood was invaded by all sorts of factories. The node grew proportionally with the industrial development of the area, led by the presence of Montedison chemical facilities and Redaelli steel plant.

A modernization of the station was planned in the 1990s, and a new station "corp" [sic] was built along with the platform roofing.In 1995, work was stopped due to errors in budget planning.In 1999 works restarted to add 4 tracks, in anticipation to the integration with the Passante Ferroviario and TAV lines, and to complete the platform roofing.

The importance of this node will increase, as it will provide service to S1 and S2 line extensions, to Pavia and Lodi, and to the new residential district called "Santa Giulia".
