New Easter wood cycle: From June 9th there will be more punctual bus trips!

From Whit Monday, June 9, 2025, the new Osterholz-Akt is rolling up in the Osterholz district, which is intended to significantly improve the bus connection of line 650. The aim of this measure is to increase the punctuality of the trips and at the same time increase user -friendliness. According to Osterholz , the timetable is optimized by moving the departure by five minutes. This can benefit passengers from a more punctual service.

The changes initially come into force on the most important stops in the region. For example, the bus is now at the Neuenkirchen Marktplatz at: 07 instead of: 12. In Schwanewede and at the Sachsenring commercial park there are also adjustments in the departure times to keep the arrival at Osterholz-Scharmbeck station at: 55. In addition, the first departure from Neuenkirchen is offered on weekdays at 5:07 a.m. and on Sundays at 7:07 a.m.

more flexible and faster connections

As part of the new Osterholz clock, which will come into force from Sunday, December 15, 2025, each settlement area with more than 3000 inhabitants should receive an hourly connection during the rush hour. This applies Monday to Friday from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. and also offers one last departure around 10 p.m. Even on weekends, the buses are traveling every two hours, which ensures more flexibility in the daily routine.

A very special focus is on the reliability of the departure times, which are often carried out at the same minute to make planning easier for passengers. In tests and surveys, many users indicated that a punctual service represents one of the highest priorities in local public transport, which impressively underlines the Statista report on public transport. Current data show that the use of public transport in 2023 remains behind the values ​​of 2019, which reinforces the need for an improved offer.

diverse offers for all

The new timetable not only includes the adjustment of line 650, but also a restructuring of other lines in the district. For example, line 650 is renamed the new line 651, while other lines such as the 660 and 680 are maintained the existing timetable. Such changes are intended to support school transport and optimize the connection to the school center.

In order to understand the new connections easily and clearly, it is advisable to use the vbn-timetable app or the website. Here the precisely precisely compounds can be determined quickly, which is particularly relief for commuters.

With the Osterholz-Back , the district sets a clear sign of the future of local public transport and strives to continue these improvements beyond 2027. What is certain is that a well -functioning public transport is not only environmentally friendly, but also contributes to the quality of life of the citizens: inside. The motto "Every town, every hour" shows that work is made here with a lot of commitment to networking the region.
