The transport company Oberhessen mbH -VGO- is a transport company in Hesse in the Rhine-Main Transport Association . The company is based in Friedberg and has an office in Alsfeld . The VGO also operates service centers in Friedberg, Alsfeld and Gießen .

The GmbH was founded in September 2005 through the merger of existing transport companies. The VGO, like the previous three companies combined, covers the district of Gießen (formerly VVG Verkehrsverbund Gießen), the Wetteraukreis (formerly WVG Wetterauer Verkehrsgesellschaft) and the Vogelsbergkreis (formerly VBV Vogelsberger Verkehrsgesellschaft). The VGO is active in this 3,414 km² area. This makes it the largest transport company in Hessen in terms of area.

The VGO is wholly owned by the OVVG Oberhessische Versorgungs- und Verkehrsgesellschaft mbH, which in turn is wholly owned by the ZOV Zweckverband Oberhessische Vertriebsbetriebe, which is partly owned by the three districts involved.

In order to ensure local public transport on the 80 bus routes , the VGO commissions subcontractors to operate around 225 buses. There are also 45 call line taxi and call collective taxi offers.

particularities

When tendering for transport services, the liner concessions remain with the VGO, provided that the VGO can prevail in the approval competition. In this case, the various transport companies only act as subcontractors.

After disputes about a financial contribution to the timetable booklet between the VGO and the bus companies Stroh (Altenstadt) and Eberwein (Karben) in December 2009, the timetables of the lines operated independently by these companies were no longer published in the VGO information media for the timetable change in the same year. From the timetable book that appeared when the timetable was changed in December 2010, the lines were included again.
