The Millennium stop first appeared in the OC Transpo official route network map for their 2007-2008 schedule that is in effect starting on September 2, 2007. The stop itself was expected to be the eastern terminus of a future Transitway segment that would connect to Blair station by 2013. The Ottawa 2020 Transportation Master Plan also has plans to convert the bus rapid transit segment to a future east-west by 2021 light-rail route from Kanata to Orleans via Bells Corners, Nepean Centre, South Keys and Greenboro with a connection to the existent north-south O-Train Trillium Line that runs from Greenboro to Bayview stations with plans to extend south and north towards Leitrim/Riverside South and Downtown respectively although without serving Barrhaven South due to the canceled extension plan of the original north-south line project in December 2006.[3]

In addition, the City of Ottawa has approved in conjunction of the new service, the construction of a new park and ride facility slated for completion by 2009.[4]
