Santa Ana is a transfer station between the Line 2 and Line 5 of the Santiago Metro. It was initially a single-line station on the Line 2, subsequently in 1998, the station begins to be adapted to become a transfer station, as a part of the extension of the Line 5 from Baquedano metro station to Santa Ana station, in which was used the New Austrian Tunnelling method.

The older portion of the station occupies part of the central reservation of the Autopista Central, which is sunked. Two street-level mezzanines at the northern and southern extremes of the station are connected with bridges traversing the highway.

The station receives its name from the nearby Santa Ana church.
