Nice St-Augustin station (French: Gare de Nice St-Agustin) is a train station on the line from Marseille to Ventimiglia, situated in Nice, in the department of Alpes-Maritimes in the region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France. The station is located close to Nice Côte d'Azur Airport (10 minutes on foot); it is a 5 minute journey from Nice Ville by TER.
The station was moved 400 meters west of its original location on 1 September 2022, to allow connection with lines 2 and 3 of the Nice Tramway, thus providing a direct link to Nice Airport, as well as with bus lines. The new 125 m2 passenger building is made of wood, with a pergola, and can be completely dismantled. The total cost of the railway station was 19 million euros.[1]
As of 2022, the station is only served by TER with services eastbound towards Nice, Menton and Ventimiglia, and westbound services towards Cannes, Grasse, Draguignan and Marseille.[2][3]
The station is located besides the Nice Tramway Lines 2&3, the latter of which, opening as of late 2019.[4] The Tramway provides direct connections to Nice Airport and into Nice City Centre through tunnelled Tram Operations
