English   Citaro Euro VI: Mercedes-Benz Citaro in use on Germany's steepest bus route
09.05.2014 von admin


Painted in traffic red, the Citaro Ü models also cope with the high number of passengers. Two electric pivot-and-slide doors ensure the flow of passengers is smooth at stops. There is also space inside for seats and a wheelchair area. All passengers must be seated before the driver negotiates the steep mountain road. Separate roof-mounted air-conditioning systems ensure that the passenger compartment and driver's station are the right temperature.

The Kehlstein route has been operated by RVO (DB Bahn Oberbayernbus) since 1 June 1976 on behalf of the Berchtesgaden-Königssee tourism region (TRBK). Operations are managed using a sophisticated system, thereby allowing some 300,000 visitors each year to use Germany's highest bus route. The journey time to ascend the Kehlstein is only about 15 minutes.
