This map depicts the fourth phase of the reconstruction of the station, which took place in 2017.
During this phase (which began on September 26, 2016) the new Track 2 was placed in service. Northbound Red Line trains were routed onto Track 2 from Track 3 south of Wilson (using this track in the opposite direction of its eventual direction) and began using the new southbound platform. The old platform (between the original Track 2 and Track 3) was removed from service. Northbound Purple Line Express trains continued to use Track 4 (the eastern-most track).
The remaining structure supporting the old Track 2 and the old platform were demolished allowing for the construction of the new elevated structure for Track 3 and the new northbound platform.
