Polanco station opened on 20 December 1984 with service northward toward Tacuba station and southward toward Auditorio station. In 2019, the station had an average daily ridership of 35,694 passengers, making it the 24th busiest station in the network and the third busiest of the line.

The station is one of the deepest on the network and the facilities are partially accessible to people with disabilities as there are elevators.

The steps are fully interactive as they include motion sensors that produce key sounds whenever their laser detects movement.
