The buses in the MVV network districts form the backbone of local public transport.
However, at certain times of the day and in various rural regions, passenger demand is so low that regular bus services reach their economically viable limits.
In order to keep the mobility offer attractive in these cases (e.g. late in the evening, at weekends or in very rural areas), the regular service is supplemented by on-demand services (ODS) in the form of the RufTaxi, the FLEXlinie or the FLEX.
This has the advantage that the on-demand services only run when and where there is actual passenger demand. The only requirement is that the journey request is registered in advance (via the MVV app or by telephone).
Various MVV regional bus routes also have individual stops that are only used when necessary.
The required stops and the registration options are indicated in the respective timetables.
