Infrastructure

Access structure, southern Hoechster-Farben-Strasse

View of the platforms in winter

There is only one central platform . This can only be reached via a pedestrian tunnel, which has three further exits: two public exits on both sides of Hoechster-Farben-Strasse , where the Industriepark Höchst Tor Nord bus stop is also located, and a non-public exit onto the industrial park grounds.

The platform, almost unchanged for 40 years, has little architectural quality. The two entrance structures in Hoechster-Farben-Strasse are more complex. The access tunnel was redesigned and has been under video surveillance ever since.
