Commuters' bus Koscht nothing: How good is the new service really?

In Rottweil, a free shuttle bus causes excitement! The commuter, as he is called, brings passengers from the parking lot at the town hall directly into the heart of the city center - and that 21 times a day! "Spring in, jump out - don't Koscht," is the tempting motto of the city, which awakens the curiosity of the citizens.

But the crucial question remains: is the bus really suitable? To find out, we went on a trip. The first passengers get in and the anticipation is noticeable. The commuter should not only be a practical solution during the construction work at the parking garage in the Groß’sche Wiese car park, but also convey a new feeling of mobility in the city. The use of the bus could prove to be a real hit if he fulfills the expectations and makes people use it regularly.

A look at the use

The first feedback from passengers are promising. Many appreciate the convenience and the fact that they don't have to pay a cent for the trip. The city hopes that the commuter will not only become an integral part of the transport offer in Rottweil during the construction period, but also beyond. The question remains whether the citizens are willing to accept this new service and whether it can establish himself as a sustainable solution for mobility in the city.
