The call taxis improve the opportunities for citizens in the southern district to be mobile with public transport

District – Since the MVV timetable change in mid-December, so-called call taxis have been on the road in the southern district of Ebersberg.

District Administrator Robert Niedergesäß has now tested the new local public transport service together with the mayors of the affected communities in the Glonn administrative community.

There are a total of three lines that connect rural communities much better to local public transport - also and especially at night and at weekends.

“The call taxis have noticeably improved the opportunities for citizens in the southern district to be mobile using public transport.

We are thus making further progress on the way with the goal of being able to enable mobility 24 hours a day, 7 days a week beyond individual transport," says the district administrator enthusiastically.

And further: “We are creating an offer across the board that now also reaches areas of the district that have not been served by public transport up to now.

Rural areas in particular, which are still insufficiently developed, will be able to benefit from the new call taxi.” The implementation is part of the local transport plan adopted by the district council in 2019 on the initiative of the district administrator.

If the new system proves itself in the southern district, further call taxi lines are planned for the future

Mayor Josef Oswald commented on the new offer on behalf of all municipalities of VG Glonn: “The Ruftaxi offer is an enormous improvement in local public transport for VG Glonn.

For example, it is now realistically possible to visit events in Munich using local public transport and also to get home again using local public transport.” And the offer seems to be well received: the MVV has already reported 92 successfully completed journeys for the past first week with 122 passengers.

The call taxi lines have the designations 4000, 4800 and 4900. Line 4000 connects Egmating, Glonn and Baiern with the S-Bahn in Aying from Monday to Friday from 5:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.

The 4800 runs daily at night between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. from Grafing train station to Bruck, Moosach, Glonn and Baiern.

Line 4900 runs between Neuperlach Süd, Zorneding, Oberpframmern, Egmating, Glonn and Baiern - from Monday to Friday at night from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m.

On weekends, the service on this route is available all day.
