New timetable as of January 2017

Things are getting going a few minutes earlier in the morning – in both directions. And during term time, the Link shuttlebus will now make four instead of three rounds every hour.

New departure times for the shuttlebus linking Zentrum and Hönggerberg.

The trial operation for the autumn semester (as reported in Service info, 15.09.2016) ends on 23 December. New travel times will apply from Tuesday, 3 January 2017.

The current departure times, every 20 minutes at x.14, x.34 and x.54 past the hour, will be supplemented by an extra round during term time. The shuttlebus will now in addition leave “ETH Hönggerberg” for Zentrum at x.44 and, in the opposite direction, depart from the “Unterführung Polyterrasse” at x.04 minutes past the hour.

Earlier departure from the main station

The above travel times will apply for the whole day, apart from the early morning. As of January 2017, the first three trips of the morning from “Bahnhofplatz/HB” (in front of the Schweizerhof hotel) will start slightly earlier: at 7.06 and 7.36 a.m. The shuttlebus will also set off earlier on its first round from “ETH Hönggerberg” to Zentrum, at 7.06 a.m.

We have made these changes in the light of the trial operation, in order to fully meet customer needs while ensuring reliability. We are happy that we can now offer an extended service, and thank you for your flexibility regarding the slightly modified early morning timetable.
