Location

Bulle railway station (French: Gare de Bulle, German: Bahnhof Bulle) is a railway station in the municipality of Bulle, in the Swiss canton of Fribourg. It is located at the junction of three railway lines: the Bulle–Romont, Bulle–Broc, and Palézieux–Bulle–Montbovon lines. All three are owned by Transports publics Fribourgeois.

History

Prior to 2019, the station was located at the southern end of the Place de la Gare. The standard gauge Bulle–Romont railway line terminated at the station, while interchange was possible between the 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) gauge Bulle–Broc and Palézieux–Bulle–Montbovon lines. A major renovation project, completed in 2023, built a new station slightly to the north on Rue Rieter. As part of this project the Bulle–Broc was converted to standard gauge.
