Public transport in the district of Schwäbisch Hall

Since 1 January 2000, KreisVerkehr has been the transport association for public transportation in the district of Schwäbisch Hall. The focus of KreisVerkehr is the RegioTarif, a uniform fare for all public transport in the entire district and partly also in neighbouring municipalities.

Since the introduction of the RegioTarif, passengers have been able to switch freely between all modes of public transport and need only one ticket. To calculate the RegioTarif, the district area is divided into zones. The amount of the fare depends on the number of zones traversed.

We would be happy to answer your questions at any time.

This corresponds to about 26 times the distance between the Earth and the Moon. Every year, around 17 million passengers use the transport of KreisVerkehr. The most loyal customers include over 20,000 passengers who hold a monthly or annual pass. More than 12,000 customers who occasionally travel by bus and train are now using the advantages of the KolibriCard.
