Bicycle Transport: General
Bicycle transport is essentially possible, but space limits in the vehicles must be taken into account: for reasons of safety or capacity, bicycle transport may be refused at any time and without notice. Passengers and pushchairs have priority over bicycles. Please show consideration for other fellow passengers. Please also note that some affiliated partners operate their own conditions for bicycle (e-bike) transport. The instructions of the transport company employees must be followed in all cases.
FREE: On the low-floor public service buses (OBUS and Albus) in Salzburg urban transport, bicycle transport is free on Monday – Friday from 09:00 to the end of the day, and all day on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.
CHARGEABLE: With all other transport companies, bicycle transport must be paid for. The prices for bicycle transport are fares set by the respective transport companies; responsibility for them lies with the respective affiliated partners.
