The station was built in the corridor of the former 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) gauge Porto to Póvoa and Famalicão railway line that operated into the terminals of Porto-Boavista (until 1938) and Porto-Trindade (from 1938). The lines were closed in 2001 to enable the construction of the Metro. The new station was inaugurated on 7 December 2002 and commercial services started on 1 January 2003. This section was initially served by the initial line A operating between terminals at Trindade and Senhor de Matosinhos. The line was extended eastwards from Trinidade to Estádio do Dragão on 5 June 2004. Using the same tracks, line B started operation on 13 March 2005, line C on 30 July 2005, line E on 27 May 2006, and line F on 2 January 2011. Sete Bicas is a through station on lines A, B, C, E and F, which run as one line within the metropolitan area. The next station to the south-east is Viso, whilst Senhora da Hora station lies to the north-west.
