The station is the last stop south of the North–South Axis, a tram tunnel crossing the city centre from Albert to Brussels-North railway station. Tram routes 3 and 4, as well as evening route 33 stop at this station. There is also a connection at ground level with tram route 51, as well as bus routes 48 and 54.
