The station has remained without traffic since 17 June 2012, because of the suspension of service on the railway, by the decision of the Piedmont Region.[1] The station was managed by Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI). Train services were operated by Trenitalia. Each of these companies is a subsidiary of Ferrovie dello Stato (FS), Italy's state-owned rail company.
