Three cities. One tram system. Our StUB.

Together with you, we are planning the Stadt-Umland-Bahn (StUB) – our sustainable transportation alterna­tive. It is intended to connect the cities of Nuremberg, Erlangen and Herzogenaurach and also the villages east of Erlangen. Environmentally friendly. Handicapped-­accessible. Modern. Get involved and shape local mobility with us.

The StUB connects us all.

„Rethink, change the mode of transportation, protect the environment: The Stadt-Umland-Bahn fulfils all three aspects. We are a region with considerable commuter traffic. Many people still use their cars for this. The Stadt-Umland-Bahn is an attractive alternative – to rethink and change the mode of transportation. Those who rely on rail instead of road also protect our environment and get to their destination with less stress. So, everything speaks in favor of the StUB.“

— Marcus König, Lord Mayor of the City of Nuremberg

„With the StUB, we will be providing a sustainable, climate-friendly and state-of-the-art local transportation system between three cities and, in the future, to villages in the surrounding districts. In doing so, we are securing outstanding business locations in a globalized world.“

— Dr. German Hacker, First Mayor of the City of Herzogenaurach
