New call bus system in Lichtenfels: flexible and environmentally friendly!

Lichtenfels, Deutschland - Attention, dear Lichtenfelser! On September 1, 2025, the time has come: The city bus lines are integrated into the local public transport offer of the Lichtenfels district and bring a breath of fresh air into the mobility of the region. A very special highlight is the introduction of a call bus system that is available for all passengers even after 6 p.m. on Sundays and on Sundays and public holidays. This reports the Wiesentbote .

What is there to know about the Rufbus system? As the long -term public transport operation in the district shows, demand is high: last year, over 46,000 passengers were transported. A practical special feature of the call bus is that it only drives to the prior order. The order should take place at least an hour before the departure - better earlier if possible. So if you want to ride spontaneously, you have to take care of the booking beforehand, which is possible both by phone and the app.

order and use of the call bus

The order of the call bus is very easy. Under number 0 95 71-18 90 , passengers can request your desired bus. When ordering, some information is then queried, such as the name, start and destination as well as special needs such as strollers or wheelchairs. It is important to note that trips that start before 8 a.m. have to be registered until 5 p.m. on the day before - this also applies to groups of six people. So everything stays organized and brisk!

The call bus can be used as a minibus or large taxi depending on the booking situation. In the timetable, these special journeys are marked with the abbreviation "RBU" in order to make them easily recognizable. The call bus can also get in and out at the stops. Payment is made according to the valid VGN tariff, so that no additional costs are incurred if you already have a ticket, such as the popular Germany ticket. Lichtenfels informed also that there are departure times and stops that are not variable.

opening ceremony and further information

And what's next? On August 2, 2025, the ceremonial inauguration of the new bus lines in the park at the district office will take place from 10 a.m. Under no circumstances should you be missing! Detailed information and timetables can of course be found at the VGN information during the event and also online at vgn.de . The public transport information office at the district office at Kronacher Straße 13 is available for everyone who prefers to have personal contact.

So be ready for a new chapter in the mobility of Lichtenfels - numerous new opportunities are waiting to get from A to B comfortably and flexibly! No matter whether too late to the after -work dinner or on the way to the next festival - the call bus is there for you!
