The Zurich Lake and Oberland transport companies ( VZO ) operate public bus services in the Zurich Oberland and Lake Zurich area on behalf of the Zurich Transport Association .

history

The VZO was founded in 1946 under the name Verkehrsbetrieb Zürcher Oberland . Two years later, after the people of Zurich had agreed to the reorganization of the branch lines in the Zurich Oberland, they took over the lines of the then closed Uerikon-Bauma-Bahn (UeBB), in 1949 the Uster-Oetwil-Bahn (UOeB) and from 1950 Männedorf - Wetzikon the Wetzikon-Meilen-Bahn (WMB). The first bus route was taken with seven chauffeurs and four buses. The first rolling stock consisted of an FBW semi-trailer truck for either passenger or goods traffic from the UeBB's inventory, as well as Alfa Romeo buses that were delivered late . By 1982 the network was gradually expanded and operated with vehicles from FBW. Since then, Mercedes and MAN buses have been in use. Since 1990, VZO has belonged to the Zürcher Verkehrsverbund (ZVV) as a company responsible for the market (MVU).

Current

On December 15, 2019, the VZO opened the new bus depot on Schellerstrasse in Wetzikon ZH. In 2018, the VZO employed 322 people, 267 of them in the driving service. With 98 vehicles on 53 lines, 449 stops are served. There are also seven night bus routes. The VZO have been recording a steady increase in passengers for several years. In 2004, 12.9 million passengers were counted, in 2005 it was 13.7 million, in 2006 then 14.8, 2007 15.8 million, 2008 16.7 million, 2009 18.6 million, 2010 18.9 million. , 2011 19.0 million, 2012 20.7 million, 2013 20.9 million, 2014 20.5 million, 2017 20.8 million, 2018 21.7 million The company's core task is to ensure connections to the S-Bahn to and from Zurich.
