Antwerpen-Linkeroever Train Station

A temporary train station has once again been established on Linkeroever. Loyal subscribers can travel by train for free between Linkeroever and Rechteroever. Read all about it under ‘Which ticket’.

What?

Every hour, one or two trains (S-trains and IC trains) stop in both directions at the temporary Antwerpen-Linkeroever station. This allows you to travel either towards Dendermonde or Ghent (via Sint-Niklaas and Lokeren), or to Antwerpen-Zuid, Antwerpen-Berchem, or Antwerpen-Centraal. From there, you can transfer to buses, trams, and shared bikes from Blue-bike, Velo Antwerpen, and Donkey Republic.

Where?

  • The train station is located on Katwilgweg in Linkeroever.

  • Bus line 36 has a stop at the station.

  • Bus lines from Beveren-Kruibeke-Zwijndrecht will stop at the P+R Linkeroever and Regatta stops.. From there, you can walk to the train station.

  • Are you coming by bike or car? You can park safely here, as there is plenty of space available.

Which ticket?

This train station is part of the NMBS/SNCB Antwerp Zone, just like the stations of Antwerp-South, -Berchem, Central, -Luchtbal, and -Noorderdokken.

You always need a ticket from NMBS/SNCB. As a loyal subscriber to De Lijn, you can get an NMBS/SNCB subscription during the works. This allows you to travel temporarily without restriction between the Left and Right Banks. Apply for it free of charge until May 31, 2026.

Are you a student or employee? Then your college, university, or employer may pay (part or) the full price of your NMBS pass. Check with them.

Why?

  • The train station in Linkeroever provides a direct connection to Rechteroever and the Waasland.

  • In Linkeroever, there is a good connection with existing bus lines to/from Beveren-Kruibeke-Zwijndrecht.

  • On Rechteroever, the trains stop at major mobility hubs such as Antwerpen-Zuid, Antwerpen-Berchem, and Antwerpen-Centraal.

When?

The complete train timetable can be found on the NMBS website and in the NMBS app. Please note that until mid-June, the S-train runs only as far as Antwerp-Berchem on school days; the IC-train, however, continues on to Antwerp Central.
