Arnele Avenue opened as part of the fourth and final segment of the East Line (now Orange Line) on July 26, 1995, which extended the line from Template:Mtss to Template:Mtss.[4] Green Line service began in July 2005, when the Orange Line was truncated to Template:Mtss. Following the September 2012 system redesign, Orange Line trains stopped serving this station and began terminating at Template:Mtss.[5] However, the line's eastern terminus was once again extended on April 30, 2018, this time to Arlene Avenue.
