New night bus line: Moosach closes the gap to Allach and Untermenzing!

There will soon be a new night bus line in Munich that connects important S-Bahn stations in the northwest of the city. This initiative will particularly benefit night owls and travelers who have no meaningful public transport connections to Allach, Untermenzing and Karlsfeld after the S2 closes at 1:30 a.m. Loud tz.de The new line will operate from 1:30 a.m. to 5 a.m.

The application to introduce this night bus route was submitted by the FDP to the Allach-Untermenzing district committee and the city council and received unanimous support. Karsten Geßner from the FDP explained that with the closure of the S2 there is a significant accessibility gap that urgently needs to be closed. The MVV app currently shows a gap from 1:50 a.m. to 5:09 a.m. for Untermenzing; the other train stations are similarly affected. The only option for young people is often the expensive taxi or Uber route, which also poses risks as young people are often under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

A step in the right direction

The night bus will not only offer a cost-effective way to ensure connections between the districts, but will also serve additional stops to ensure better accessibility. The aim is to synchronize the arrival of the U3 to Moosach and thus enable residents and guests to return comfortably. A good bus connection can be a real plus here, especially on the weekends, when the U3 already runs every 30 minutes.

Night traffic has a long tradition in Germany. It was expanded in particular at the end of the 1980s to offer young people safe options to return to after an evening on the town Wikipedia is to be read. Night buses and disco buses have since become an essential part of local public transport and ensure that a certain level of mobility is guaranteed even at night.

The future of mobility in Munich

With the new night bus route, the city is setting an example for more transport options and safety at night. More and more people are using public transport even after dark, which has a positive effect on the quality of life in the districts. Similar models have already been successfully implemented in other German cities, which shows that a well-thought-out night traffic concept is popular everywhere.

It remains to be seen whether the night bus can actually close the accessibility gap, but the approach is promising and could open a new chapter for mobility in the north of Munich. The anticipation of the first trips is growing and shows that not only the day, but also the night in Munich has a variety of options to offer.
