Easy to get wrong
Lausanne station is mid-renovation: a third subway entrance and extended platforms are planned so the station can handle longer trains, alongside a new metro tunnel at the station's west end - a traveller connecting to the existing Lausanne-Gare metro station (opened 27 October 2008) should expect signage and access points to keep changing during this build-out.
