The station has two levels and groups of platforms, with the upper one on the SBB-owned Olten to Lausanne line and the lower one on the BLS-owned Gürbetal line.
Until 2014, the two groups of platforms were regarded as separate stations, known as Ausserholligen SBB and Ausserholligen GBS respectively, but in that year they were both renamed after the adjacent Zentrum Europaplatz and are now shown as a single station on public transport maps.
The lower level group of platforms form an intermediate stop on S-Bahn lines S3 and S31, between Bern and Belp, and S6, between Bern and Schwarzenburg (using the Bern–Schwarzenburg line).
[6][8][9][10][11] The public transport interchange at Europaplatz also includes the Europaplatz Bahnhof stop on Bern tramway routes 7 and 8 and Bernmobil bus route 31.
The A12 motorway passes over both stations and the interchange on a viaduct.
