East Worthing railway station is an unstaffed station in Worthing in the county of West Sussex. The station is operated by Southern. The only ticket issuing facilities are Permit to Travel machines on each platform, and the only buildings remaining are glass and metal shelters, following the demolition of a small wooden ticket office building on the Up (eastbound) platform in the early 1990s. The platforms are only long enough to accommodate 4-coach trains.
The station was opened in 1905 as Ham Bridge Halt, taking the name of the road bridge at the eastern end.
As of 2007, the standard off-peak train service is:
- Eastbound: 3 tph to Brighton
- Westbound: 2 tph to West Worthing; 1 tph to Littlehampton
