Overview
- Location: Augsburg, Germany
- Year: Since 2018
- Initiator: The Augsburg Transport and Tariff Association (AVV)
Background
Integrated mobility for the enhancement of environmentally friendly transport services.
Measure
The bicycle bus brings excursionists with their bikes directly from the city centre to the starting points of attractive bike tours – and back home again after the tour. It is also possible to cover longer distances by bike, as you can get off and on flexibly at various stops along the bike routes. By purchasing a ticket, you can have your bike transported in the new bicycle trailer all day long.
