The traffic community cathedral country (VGM) is an association of all the public transport (public transport) in the districts Borken , Coesfeld , Steinfurt and Warendorf and the independent city Münster participating transport companies . Your job is to ensure a uniform tariff and coordinated timetables .

PTAs are for the rail transport (regional rail) in co-operation area 5 (cathedral country) the Zweckverband SPNV Münsterland (CVM), the road passenger transport (public road transport), the four counties and the city of Muenster.

The traffic area of ​​the Verkehrsgemeinschaft Münsterland borders in the north on the state of Lower Saxony , in the east on the Verkehrsverbund OstWestfalenLippe (VVOWL), in the south on the Verkehrsgemeinschaft Ruhr-Lippe (VRL), the Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Ruhr (VRR) and in the west on the Netherlands .

On August 1, 2017, the Münsterland tariff was abolished and merged with the Ruhr-Lippe tariff , the Hochstift tariff and the tariffs of the Sechser and the Verkehrsgemeinschaft Westfalen-Süd to form the new Westphalian tariff .

Concepts and offers

The train traffic in Münsterland as in the rest of North Rhine-Westphalia is determined by the NRW clock . 3 central bus classes were created for bus transport, although they differ slightly in some places.

SchnellBusse (or SprinterBusse ; code letter S ) offer large-scale connections, some of which can already be referred to as long-distance lines and also run over motorways. This offer is primarily intended to replace main connections that were affected by the closure of the railway lines. Most of the lines refer to Münster as a junction .

Regional buses (code letter R ) are the most important bus routes between cities and municipalities. In addition, there are bus networks that often integrate school buses.
