The bus stop at Hausham train station is currently not served.
The change bypassed the DB Navigator app – to the chagrin of the passengers.
The bus company RVO also sees a need for improvement here.
Hausham – The bus stop at the train station is an important public transport hub in Hausham.
Not least because there is an interface to the trains of the Bavarian Regiobahn (BRB).
But currently the transfer point has become a no man's land.
Due to the ongoing construction work in the center of Hausham (we reported), the buses of Regionalverkehr Oberbayern (RVO) GmbH can no longer go to this stop.
The problem: DB Navigator, one of the best-known and most-used digital journey planners in public transport in Germany, knows nothing about it – and neither does its users.
If they don't follow the instructions on the bus, they will either get stranded by train at the station or end up somewhere completely different from where they actually wanted to go.
Exceptionally traveling by bus
The inconsistency was noticed by a reader of our newspaper.
He lives at the Hausham train station himself and usually walks to his mother in the Nagelbachsiedlung.
Recently, however, he had a lot to carry - and that's why he decided to take the RVO bus.
On the way back to the train station, he obediently pressed the stop button – without success.
Only then did he recognize the information in the electronic ticker and asked the bus driver to drop him off at the level crossing, which he then did.
The Haushamer explains that he was amazed at what he considered to be insufficient passenger information.
As an example of the errors in the DB Navigator, he cites the connection from the Fischhausen-Neuhaus train station to the Nagelbach bus stop in Hausham.
In fact, the travel planner spits out a tight transfer time of just three minutes at Hausham station.
The same applies to the Nagelbach-Holzkirchen train station route.
RVO is amazed
In order to draw attention to the problem, Haushamer turned to the RVO.
There, however, he was told that it was "not easy" to enter the change into the timetable data.
He could hardly believe that, after all, adjustments are made to rail traffic on a daily basis and mostly across different transport companies.
"It will probably be possible for the bus to correctly enter the failure of a bus stop over a period of five months."
When asked by our newspaper, RVO operations manager Peter Bartl confirmed that such an adjustment would involve a great deal of effort.
"The entire stored timetable has to be changed." In the meantime, all available channels have been equipped on site: the scrolling text and the monitor in the bus, the bus stop itself and, of course, the in-house online information.
Nonetheless, Bartl concedes that the reader's criticism is entirely understandable.
"We have to get better at that," admits Bartl.
Construction site makes it even more complicated
In the case of the Hausham train station, however, the situation is even more complex.
So the biggest traffic restriction is still to come.
From July 30th to August 20th, Schlierseer Straße will be completely closed up to the southern outskirts of Hausham due to the final asphalting.
The affected bus routes would probably end in Hausham, since a detour via the Leitzachtal would hardly take any passengers due to the long journey.
At least school traffic is not affected, since the closure takes place during the summer holidays.
The RVO itself is not happy about the many construction sites, stresses Bartl.
"We didn't choose it." Because of the tense traffic situation in Hausham, it's not even possible to identify alternative stops in the immediate vicinity of the station.
According to Bartl, the next available stops are at the confluence of Tegernseer Straße and Industriestraße.
The replacement stop on Brentenstraße signposted at the station only applies to rail replacement services (SEV) if required.
