Built as part of the adjacent Canyon Valley transit-oriented development, the development will feature a Metrolink rail station served by the Antelope Valley Line, a bus transfer facility, and a 613-space parking garage.[4] Construction on the bus station began in January 2020.[5] A groundbreaking for the rail station was held the same day as the opening of the parking facility: October 27, 2020.[4]

The hub is partly funded by a special tax district of adjacent properties,[6] and by grants from Caltrans. The contract awarded for construction of the train station was valued at $23.7 million.[3]
