It is positioned near Piazza Abbiategrasso, which is also served by the M2 metro line, creating a multimodal transit junction for commuters traveling between the southern suburbs and central Milan.

The tram stop is well integrated with surrounding services, including shops, supermarkets, and local schools that form part of the district’s daily rhythm.
Abbiategrasso has seen significant public investment due to its role as a major node in Milan's transit network. The terminus status of tram line 15 here means the stop plays a critical role in scheduling, maintenance, and managing high-volume commuter traffic. The area is surrounded by residential blocks, small green spaces, and pedestrian pathways that facilitate safe access to the stop. Its proximity to the Naviglio Pavese canal also adds historical and geographical significance, connecting modern transportation infrastructure with Milan's historic waterways.
