Our service offer

hvv on track

4 U-Bahn, 6 S-Bahn and 20 regional rail lines as well as 3 AKN lines provide fast, direct direct links throughout the Hamburg region (2,11 MB) independent of road conditions within the Hamburg region.

U- and S-Bahn lines run all through the night before the weekend and before public holidays. In some cases, the regional rail services run night trains at the weekend. At the same times there is additionally a network of bus services consisting of many MetroBus and some city and regional bus lines which connect with the rapid transit stations.

Some buses are more equal than others

MetroBus

The network within the network – 29 MetroBus lines (339,48 KB) represent fast, frequent and reliable links to other services. The MetroBus lines provide a direct service into the city centre and to district centres as well as cross-links outside the centre.

XpressBus

Get there faster – without paying extra: the 13 Xpress bus lines (1,97 MB) make it possible! They provide fast links to major public transport interchanges or important destinations with only a few stops on the way. The Xpress buses can be identified by the X before a single or double-digit line number.

City and regional buses

City and regional buses have a three-digit number, or in some outlying regions four digits.

Night buses

U- and S-Bahn lines as well as many MetroBus and city bus lines run all through the nights before the weekend and before public holidays. These services are supplemented both at weekend and before public holiday by night bus lines, which serve mainly outlying districts and towns and villages in the surrounding region. Night buses always have a three-digit number starting from 600.

Harbour ferries

7 ferry lines (2,54 MB) run in the port of Hamburg and across the River Elbe. These have a double-digit number starting with 61. That means you can “put to sea” with your hvv Card!
And by the way: if you want to take a boat trip on the Elbe or Alster just for fun, Hadag and Alster Touristik also offer a wide range of pleasure trips, also for groups, and sightseeing tours (information in German). The hvv Card is not valid for these, however.

Complementary mobility

The hvv is currently in the process of transforming itself into a mobility network combining existing classical public transport and individual mobility offers from third-party providers. The sharing products or on-demand services are a valuable addition to the mobility revolution (in German).

Mobility on call

hvv is growing into an interlinked mobility network (in German) linking existing classic public transport services and individual on-demand mobility services.

The on-demand service hvv hop (in German) is an integral part of the hvv services in:

Ahrensburg, Kreis Stormarn
Brunsbek/Trittau, Kreis Stormarn
Henstedt-Ulzburg, Kreis Segeberg

elbMOBIL

You can access flexible mobility through dial-a-ride taxis or minibuses with Anruf-Sammel-Taxi (AST), Anruf-Sammel-Mobil (ASM) and RufBus in certain areas and at certain times in the regions surrounding Hamburg.
