VBG Verkehrsbetriebe Glattal AG operates local public transport (bus, tram) in the Glattal and Furttal regions and in the Effretikon/Volketswil area, northwest and north-east of the city of Zurich, canton of Zurich, Switzerland, on behalf of the Zürcher Verkehrsverbund (ZVV). VBG trams and buses connect villages with regional railway stations served by Zurich S-Bahn trains and Zurich Airport.
As a purely market-responsible company, VBG has been responsible exclusively for the planning and implementation of transport services since 1993. All transport services are provided by contractors who organise driving personnel and vehicles.
As of 2019, the VBG transport network consisted of 54 lines (52 bus, 2 tram) with a route length of 285 km, of which 272.3 km are bus routes and 12.7 km are tram lines. In the same year, 39 million passengers were transported.[1]
VBG is the owner of the infrastructure of the Glattal light rail (Glattalbahn), which partly operates over the Zurich tram network of VBZ, and uses also the Glattalbus name.
