Excerpt from Wikipedia

Gare de Montpellier Sud de France is a railway station on the outskirts of Montpellier, France which offers occasional TGV services.

Montpellier Sud de France was built for and opened a few months after the Nîmes-Montpellier Bypass, which extends from the end of the LGV Méditerranée near Nîmes to just beyond Montpellier.

Station

Montpellier Sud de France has four platforms and six tracks. The 1st, 3rd, 4th and 6th tracks allow train access to the platforms and the 2nd and 5th tracks are used by passing traffic (the Contournement Nîmes - Montpellier is also used by freight traffic).

Autoroute 9 and Autoroute 709 (a branch of the A9) provide road access to the station.

The station is situated at the edge of Montpellier near the Château de la Mogère.
