Welcome to the Federal Office of Transport (FOT) website. The FOT is the supervisory authority responsible for public transport in Switzerland (railways, cableways, ships, trams and buses). Large areas of freight transport also fall within the FOT’s remit. The FOT is responsible for safety, finance and infrastructure, as well as the legal and political frameworks of public and freight transport.

In addition to basic information in English, the FOT website also provides comprehensive information in German, French and Italian.
