Public Transport (BVG) Information
Public transport in Berlin is operated by the company
BVG. In this programme booklet, we provide general information
about tariff areas, tickets and fares as well as the
most important routes for conference participants. More
detailed information and a very helpful journey planer
and BVG network maps for download can be found at www.bvg.de/index.php/en.
Berlin has three tariff zones: A, B and C. Tickets
are available for combinded zones, tickets for zones
AB are sufficient to travel within Berlin and thus for
all routes mentioned below. Tickets allow you to use
all buses, trams, S-Bahn and underground (U-Bahn) trains,
including regional rail transport.
Tickets are available from ticket counters and ticket
machines on S-Bahn, underground and trams (unless otherwise
stated, see 7-Day-Card) and can be bought from bus drivers.
Validity requires the cancellation via stamping immediately
on starting your travel for tickets purchased from machines
(but not those bought from bus drivers). Stamping machines
are provided at all stations, tickets purchased within
trams are already cancelled at the point of sale.

To plan your journeys, please use the journey planer
on the BVG website. Here, you can indicate your departure
and destination stop (also specific addresses, i.e.
street name and number) as well as the date and time
of desired arrival or departure and receive a detailed
travel plan.
On the following pages, you will find a description
of how to get to the conference venue (BfR) after your
arrival at Berlin by plane or train. Furthermore, information
of how to get to a traffic junction, i.e. connections
to your accommodation, after the conference banquet
and of how to get to the Zoo Berlin or Tierpark Berlin
starting at the conference venue (BfR) by public transport
are given. Please make sure that you have a valid "BVG"

are frequent and strict.
