Quarto d'Altino (Italian: Stazione di Quarto d'Altino ) is a railway station serving the town of Quarto d'Altino, in the region of Veneto, northern Italy. The station is located on the Venice–Trieste railway. The train services are operated by Trenitalia.

History

In 1947 the stations name was changed from San Michele del Quarto to Quarto d'Altino.

Modernisation

In the early 2000s the station was the subject of heavy work to platforms and the tracks in order to adapt it to modern standards: the pedestrian crossing over the track was replaced by an underground tunnel with lift, renovated lighting and signs and the passenger building was repainted. The ticket office was closed, replaced by automatic ticket machines, which have been criticized for their sometimes poor operation. The ticket machines were replaced in June 2009 with two more functional and multilingual ticket machines.

Despite these works, the modernisation is not yet complete, the waiting shelter (where the foundations were dug for) or the scheduled stop for buses have yet to be built. The small waiting room, where the ticket machines are located is not accessible for disabled people as opposed to the platforms.

In 2009 the capacity of the parking lot of 180 places was expanded with a new access roads.
