Bölge is an at-grade station on the Fahrettin Altay—Evka 3 Line of the İzmir Metro in Bornova. It is located in the Kazımdirik neighborhood adjacent to Üniversite Avenue and just south of the D.300 state highway. The station is located next to the main campus of Yaşar University and is used mostly by students. Bölge opened on 22 May 2000 as part of the ten original stations on the İzmir Metro.
Bölge was originally a railway station on the Bornova suburban line known as Bölge railway station (Turkish: Bölge istasyonu). The station was built by the Smyrna Cassaba Railway (SCP) and opened on 25 October 1866. Trains from Basmane station to Bornova stopped at Bölge. Since the Bornova branch was never extended, the station and the line remained a suburban railway. The Turkish State Railways (TCDD) took over the SCP in 1934 and continued operating commuter service on the railway. TCDD sold the railway to the İzmir Municipality in 1994 and Bölge, along with the railway, was closed down. The Municipality began construction of the İzmir Metro in 1995 and Bölge station was demolished. The new station was built on the new right-of-way shortly after. Construction was completed in 1999 and the station was inaugurated on 22 May 2000, along with the metro line from Bornova to Üçyol.
ESHOT operates city bus service on Üniversite Avenue.
