Use Närtrafik to handle errands or discover new destinations in the county.
Närtrafik is a complementary public transport service for journeys within Örebro County. You can travel between a residential address and the nearest designated Närtrafik stop. Närtrafik is especially useful in areas with limited access to other forms of public transport.
You can travel with Local service (Närtrafik) if:
- It is more than 1 km from the residential address to the nearest bus stop.
- Your nearest stop has fewer than 10 departures per day in each direction. This applies even if your residence is located less than 1 km from the stop.
- If your nearest Närtrafik stop is located in another municipality, you are allowed to travel to the closest Närtrafik stop within your own municipality instead.
You must book your Närtrafik journeys in advance and make your own way to your nearest Närtrafik stop. You cannot travel from just any Närtrafik stop or within a municipal centre.
