Transportation in Linköping

Linköping has a very good public transportation system. You can buy your ticket in various different shops and in the so called Quickomats and of course in the bus terminal office at Resecentrum. Please note that you can not buy you ticket on the bus, since they no longer accept cash after the buses have been robbed repeatedly and they want to protect the safety of the bus drivers.

You will be able to recognise the busses by their enamel in bright orange and red colours, supposed to make people smile.
