The Munich Transport and Tariff Association (MVV) provides the overarching framework for local public transport in Munich and the surrounding region. As a transport association, it ensures that different modes of transport, such as buses and trains, are integrated into a coherent system. A single fare structure, coordinated timetables and shared information services make local transport clearer and easier to use. The aim is to provide a reliable and straightforward transport service for everyday life in the city and its surrounding areas.
