Ansonia station is a commuter rail station on the Waterbury Branch of the Metro-North Railroad's New Haven Line, located in Ansonia, Connecticut.

Station layout

This station has one low-level side platform to the east of the track. The station is owned and operated by the Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConnDOT), but Metro-North is responsible for maintaining platform lighting, trash, and snow removal.^[1] There is a parking lot with 50 parking spaces managed by the city of Ansonia.^[1]^[3]

In 2018, ConnDOT awarded a grant of $389,000 to the city of Ansonia for safety and beautification improvements to the station including improved lighting, sidewalks, and accessibility.^[5]

Future

In November 2021, Governor Lamont announced at Ansonia station that both Derby and Ansonia stations will be equipped with high platforms and other improvements.^[6] While Derby station has been fully funded and awaiting construction, Ansonia station still awaits funding.
