Travel in Gothenburg
Public transportation in Gothenburg is operated by Västtrafik. They
operate tram, bus, and ferry services, and even some commuter train
lines to nearby towns.
The Västtrafik card
At the bus/tram stop
One card, many tickets
Bus/tram stop signpost present at all major
stops in the city.
The Västtrafik card can be loaded with many different kinds of tickets and travel
passes. For frequent travellers, a travel pass is recommended. You can load your
Västtrafik card with additional money for those times when you cross into other
zones where the travel pass is not valid.
A
Where to buy the card?
You can acquire the Västtrafik travel card and load it with money or a travel pass
at Västtrafik’s own stores or at many supermarkets and corner shops like 7-Eleven
and Pressbyrån.

plan your travels in the city. Just enter a starting point and a destination, together
with when you want to depart or arrive, and the travel planner will show you the
best way to get there. You can also check from which platform the bus/tram will

you travel with Västtrafik. When purchasing the travel
pass, ask for “periodkort för ungdom”.
