Public Transport
In the region where the World Gymnaestrada 2019 takes place, there is an excellent public transport system with buses and trains running regularly every 15 minutes. During the World Gymnaestrada this system will be extended according to the actual requirements and as a result this will further increase passenger capacity!
More modern new trains will be coming into service and also the region’s fleet of buses has been continuously converted within the last few years to articulated buses which allows a large number of passengers to be transported on a regular basis. The World Gymnaestrada 2007, which took place in the same region, brought in a great deal of new impulses for public transport. For instance, more modern and efficient railway stations have been built meanwhile.
The very successful traffic concept of 2007 will be adopted
The region will be divided into four colour zones, which will allow the participants to travel easily and without language barriers. For all participants who are accommodated in schools or who have booked their hotel bed via Bodensee-Vorarlberg Tourism there will be a clearly structured traffic plan available at their place of accommodation, showing their nearest station, as well as the travelling times and best connections to and from the main venues (Stadium Birkenwiese Dornbirn, Trade Exhibition Centre Dornbirn, Casino Stadium Bregenz).
In addition with the use of an »intelligent infrastructure«, the flow of the participants can be followed and additional buses can be efficiently deployed when needed.
All the traffic plans can be viewed via the World Gymnaestrada-App or via www.vmobil.at.
The main timetable for the express bus lines and trains is available as PDF for download and print.
Trade Exhibition Centre public transport
Buses commute to/from the train station Dornbirn-Schoren (traffic zones blue and green) directly to/from the Entrance South of the Trade Exhibition Centre. All buses to/from Dornbirn (traffic zone red) stop at the Entrance East. The Express buses (traffic zone yellow) stop at the Main Entrance, the regular buses at the Messepark-crossroads.
There is also a well marked foot path from the train station Dornbirn Schoren to the Trade Exhibition Centre (approx. 20 minutes). Additionally local visitors can make use of a bike parking area right next to the Trade Exhibition Centre.
