Since Neviges was incorporated into Velbert in 1975, the name of the station was changed from Neviges to Velbert-Neviges in December 2003.[4] It was also moved a few hundred metres to the vicinity of the Neviges market (Nevigeser Markt) in 2003, so that it would have a better connection to bus transport.[4] The original station is still preserved. The former platform canopy was demolished by Deutsche Bahn in March 2019 and the former station building is now used as a restaurant. In operational terms, the new station is considered a Haltepunkt (stopping point), as it has no sets of points.
