Barrier-free travelling

Travelling with the City-Bahn:

City-Bahn Chemnitz also endeavours to make travelling as pleasant as possible for passengers with reduced mobility. If there is no customer advisor on board, please signal to the driver that you require assistance.

Access to our trains is generally also possible for wheelchair users. At platforms and stops that are not barrier-free at first glance, it is possible to board our trains using a mobile ramp.

Our Citylink vehicles (mainly on the C13, C14 and C15 lines) are equipped with the Information system for the blind (BLIS).

Variobahn and Regioshuttle RS1 vehicles are used on the C11, Rb92 and RB37 lines. These are not equipped with the information system for the blind. 

If you are not planning your journey exclusively with the City-Bahn Chemnitz, we recommend that you register via the nationwide hotline of the Mobility Service Centre: 030 65221 888 or by e-mail: msz@deutschebahn.com

Travel planning:

As travel plans can always change at short notice, please let us know if this is the case so that we can cancel the planned assistance.

With the C11, C13, C14, C15, RB 92 and RB 37 lines, the City-Bahn provides important connections for schoolchildren, commuters and day trippers. It is precisely the combination of transfer-free travelling that makes the Chemnitz model so special for our region.

Due to the different routes and the connection between the railway and tram, we recommend that larger groups book in advance so that we can estimate the capacity utilisation of our vehicles. For travellers with reduced mobility, it is important to know how many wheelchairs need to be transported.

We recommend booking at least 7 days before the start of the trip via our service number 0371 495 795 222 (24 h, local rate) or via the registration form on our website. Homepage.

The customer service staff will need the following information for your enquiry:

  • Number of travellers (divided into adults and children)
  • Number of wheelchairs to be transported
  • Day of the journey
  • Route and day of travel
