The open-air shelter was noted to have a timetable, onwards travel information and a help point/ emergency telephone. Even though the shelter is outdoors, one was legally required to wear a mask against COVID-19 while at the SNCF station.

Marianne magazine featured the site in a July 2020 article, calling it "the most deserted station in France" and confirming how little-used the station is, even if it serves a somewhat-limited function, allowing residents of the largely rural area to access larger urban centers for shopping or other needs.
