The name of the new station caused some confusion as it located some 12 km (7.4 mi) from Nîmes itself and 20 km (12.4 mi) from the Pont du Gard.[1] After the project started in 2017, the station was opened on 15 December 2019 although no train operated during the first five days, due to a strike.[2]
It was designed by AREP.[3]
