Nærbus: Reinventing Rural Mobility in Denmark
In the municipality of Faxe, the Nærbus service proves that public transport can be a real alternative to private cars, even in rural areas. By replacing three underutilized fixed bus lines, this "free-floating" service adjusts its routes in real-time based on bookings. With over 55,000 trips since its launch in 2024, its success far exceeds expectations for a dispersed environment. Full integration with the Danish national travel app ensures seamless trip planning.
