New Timetable: Changes to Bus Lines in Vienna-Hietzing
Wiener Linien has announced that bus line 53A will be extended beyond its previous terminus. This means a new connection for numerous residential areas and schools in the Hietzing district, just in time for the start of school, as reported by ORF.
Extension of Line 53A in Vienna-Hietzing
Bus line 53A will now run from Hütteldorf station not only to Unter St. Veit, but further to the new terminus "Stock im Weg." This measure enables the connection of additional residential areas and educational institutions. The allotment gardens around the St. Veiter Gate and the Hörndlwald recreational area will particularly benefit.
Restructuring of Bus Lines 54A and 54B
There are also changes to lines 54A and 54B. The buses will now travel via Wolfrathplatz, which will become the central transfer point for the area with line 53A. Line 54A will permanently take over the connection to Hörndlwald. Additionally, the Reischergasse stop has been renamed, and line 54B will now exclusively travel to the St. Veiter Gate.
Fewer Detours and Denser Intervals Through New Routes
The changes in bus routing offer various advantages for passengers. By eliminating loop routes, the lines have clear start and end points, leading to more straightforward schedules. This reduces detours, such as additional trips to the St. Veiter Gate, and positively impacts travel time.
The new routes are also expected to lead to denser intervals. As several lines run parallel on the same sections, Wiener Linien expects shorter waiting times and more space, especially during peak hours.
