There is a passenger advisory board .
Line network
Tram lines
The current network of trams includes two lines.
- Line 3: Eckersbach - Neumarkt (Leipziger Straße) - Hauptmarkt - Stadthalle - Neuplanitz (1999–2005 Eckersbach – Stadthalle, since December 2005 to Neuplanitz)
- Line 4: Pölbitz - Neumarkt (Bosestraße) - Georgenplatz - Marienthal / Paulusstraße - Städtisches Klinikum (at times Zwickau's only tram line, back in operation since December 2005)
This line network was implemented for the timetable change on December 15, 2019.
Former tram lines
- Line 5: Municipal Clinic - Marienthal / Paulusstraße - Georgenplatz - Central Station - Central Station (December 2009 - December 13, 2019)
- Line 7: Pölbitz - Neumarkt (Bosestraße) - Georgenplatz - central stop - main station (until December 2005, and December 2009 - December 13, 2019)
Due to the poor condition of the turning loop , the tram connection to the main train station was discontinued on December 13, 2019, as safe operations could no longer be guaranteed. Since then, the city bus line 10 (every 10 minutes during rush hour ) covers the connection to the main train station. The tram connection is expected to be operational again in 2023 or after the renovation of the station forecourt .

vehicles
The Zwickau municipal transport company uses bus and tram vehicles. Currently, the Czech Tatra type “KT4D” trams and the “MAN / AEG GT6M-NF” low-floor trams are used. Buses from the manufacturer MAN “Lion's City” and from the manufacturer Mercedes-Benz “Citaro” operate in the bus network. The majority of buses run on natural gas, so the exhaust gases are particularly low in pollutants. Both types of tram are used on all SVZ lines. In 2018, the majority of SVZ vehicles received video surveillance.
