adjustments in bus traffic

The changes also affect bus traffic, in particular the lines of-85 and OF-86, which will be operated by new operators from December 15th. Due to delivery delays on the new buses, replacement buses are initially used. At the same time, the line of-58 is discontinued and replaced by the adapted line of-85, which runs via Rodgau and Seligenstadt to Mainhausen. The city buses of-51 and OF-52 also return to Sunday traffic. In Hanau, however, passengers benefit from improved connections. Line 7 is extended to the August-Sichttner-Halle, which can now be reached regularly every half hour from Monday to Friday. These measures are intended to increase the accessibility of important facilities and sports facilities, so that the residents are better connected to the transport networks, as the Hanauer Straßenbahn GmbH In addition, the RMV tariff structure will be adjusted from January 2025, whereby the price increase was decided by an average of four percent in order to cover the increasing operating costs in local transport. This will increase driving prices for different ticket types, including the popular Germany ticket, which will cost 58 euros per month in the future.
