Leverkusen Chempark, known as Bayerwerk until 2013.[5] is a railway station on the Cologne–Duisburg railway, situated on the border of Leverkusen and Cologne in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.[6] It is named after the nearby Bayer chemical production plants. It is served by the S6 line of the Rhine-Ruhr S-Bahn at 20-minute intervals.[7][8]
It is also served by the following bus routes: 151 and 152 (operated by Kölner Verkehrs-Betriebe), 201 (operated by Kraftverkehr Wupper-Sieg) and 255 (operated by Kraftverkehr Gebr. Wiedenhoff), all at 20-minute intervals.[7]
Before this station was built, there was a station one kilometre away called Leverkusen Wiesdorf, but it is now closed.
