In June 2020, plans were submitted for a new stop on the Berner Oberland Bahn line between Interlaken and Wilderswil.[2][3] By September 2022, plans were approved including a station and park and ride facility to be constructed next to the former Interlaken Airport site.[4] Two months later, ground was broken on the new stop and by April 2023, the new switches were installed for train traffic to be accepted which resulted in the line being closed between Interlaken and Grindelwald.[5][6]
