Price increase at VVR: How the tariffs change in Vorpommern-Rügen

As of January 1, 2025, passengers in Ribnitz-Damgarten and the surrounding area must expect higher prices in public transport. The Vorpommern-Rügen Vorpommern-Rügen (VVR) increases the tariffs by an average of five percent. The price for a single ticket in Ribnitz-Damgarten will then cost 2.20 euros, while the fare for a city trip in Stralsund is 2.60 euros. In addition, the day ticket for the regions Bergen, Binz-Prora, Sassnitz and Ribnitz-Damgarten increases from 5.40 euros to 5.70 euros. This measure is justified with increasing operating costs, especially for energy and personnel href = "https://www.ostsee-zeitung.de/lokales/vorpommern-ruegen/ribnitz-damgarten/landkreis-vorpommern-ruegen-verkeh Rsgesellschaft-erge-zum-1-Januar-2025-die-fuenf-nr4gwtuq3bdl3duti4ysqvy7eq.html "> Ostsee-zeitung.de reported.

new offers and ticket changes

At the same time as the price increase, the VVR plans to improve the transport offer. From January 2025, the Rufbus VVR surfer will also be used in other regions, including Barth, Stralsund Umland and Altenpleen. This is done as part of the introduction of the call bus system, which was launched in June 2024 to promote mobility in rural areas. In addition to the more attractive call bus offer, two new regional bus lines, including from Klein Zicker to Sassnitz, are launched. In addition, the 10-group touring card is expanded to the entire district of Vorpommern-Rügen, while the 6-series card in city traffic Stralsund is no longer offered. Groups of ten or more people who control the same goal are thus benefited from the reduced single ticket, as also from Aubertrine.org noted.
