Bicycle boom on the Weser ferry: new ways for Bremen cyclists!

Walle, Deutschland - The Weser ferry "Pusdorp" is also very popular this year and attracts numerous passengers with their trips. In the season from March to October, 16,494 people used the ferry to cross the Weser. That is an average of 258 passengers a day, with particularly sunny Saturdays and Sundays being heavily frequented. It is particularly noteworthy that 6,737 passengers with bicycles came on board, which corresponds to an increase of 25 percent compared to the previous year. Christiane Gartner, Managing Director of the Culture Association, presented this information in the Transport Committee of the Gröpelingen Advisory Board, such as Weser-Kurier reported.

Start of the new ferry season

The new season of the "Pusdorp" begins on April 29, 2025 and lasts until October 3. On Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, the ship runs every 30 minutes between Pier 2, Molenturm and Lankenauer Höft. With a simple trip for 1.40 euros for adults and 60 cents for children, use is extremely cheap for both leisure activities and bike tours. A fee of 30 cents is also charged per bike, with the ferry being particularly attractive for cyclists, as well as Oberseestadt Bremen reported.

For the 2025 season, many activities are already planned to further increase the attractiveness of the ferry. This also includes an event under the motto "Lankenauer Love" on the starting day. You also strive for a year -round company admission to improve the connections in local public transport. Edith Wangenheim, advisory board spokeswoman in Woltmershausen, emphasizes the need for this measure. The signposted cycle path network in the area is also to be optimized to show cyclists a clear path to the ferry.
