DIY On Demand
Read full descriptionHide full description
The mobilityDIY On-Demand module and app are part of a community-based solution to mobility where members of the community manage and drive (literally!) the service. Its easy setup provides a highly configurable user experience, managing everything from the schedule, service area, and drivers, and allows users to make ride requests by app, website, or phone. mobilityDIY On-Demand is ideal for communities that are generally considered “off-the-grid” and have few options provided by the government or private sector. Examples include small towns, outlying businesses, suburbia, and event venues.

How does the ILSE-BUS work? The ILSE-BUS connects urban and rural areas. The minibusses take you from bus stop to bus stop – or they can take you to the nearest regular bus line. This provides you with a flexible mobility option. During your journey, additional passengers may also join; together, you'll reach your destinations. Where does the ILSE-BUS operate? The ILSE-BUS operates throughout the service area of the Vorpommern-Greifswald public transport company. Why should you ride the ILSE-BUS? Our ILSE-BUS is not tied to a fixed schedule or route. We transport you from Monday to Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. to one of our many stops. However, if you wish to be brought to your doorstep on your return journey, simply activate "Drop-off at doorstep" among the passenger details. This saves you from carrying heavy bags after shopping. It's also a good alternative for your children's safe journey home. How much does the ILSE-BUS cost? The fare depends on the length of your journey and is based on our current public transport tariff. Journeys on regular bus lines must be paid for separately. If you have the Germany Ticket, you will receive a discount on your journey. What vehicles do we use? The ILSE-BUS uses comfortable, barrier-free vehicles with up to 8 seats. ILSE IS EASY AND SUPER EASY TO BOOK: Download the Ilse-Bus app to your smartphone and register with a few clicks. Now you can easily book your trip. After entering your pickup and destination stops, as well as the number of passengers, the ILSE-BUS app will show you your travel options. Review the details. Book your trip - the app will show you the time and place of your pickup. Still have questions? You can reach us Monday to Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at 03976 240240.
