The station has a particular arrangement specific to the stations serving or had served as a terminus. It has 4 tracks divided amongst 2 island platforms and 1 side platform. Trains from Mairie de Montreuil can only stop on the northernmost track (the side platfrom) while trains from Pont de Sèvres usually stop on the southernmost track, although it occasionally uses the two central tracks either for long-term stabling or to allow short-working trips to turn back trains to Mairie de Montreuil for passenger services to allow for a higher frequency along that stretch.
