Public transportation

From the conference hotels to the university

By taxi

A large taxi stand is next to the Hauptbahnhof, Bielefeld's main train station.
A taxi ride to the university takes about 10 minutes and costs about 20 DM.
To order a taxi by telephone, call 97 111 (BIETA TAXI).

By bus

Main bus stations are located at the Hauptbahnhof and the Jahnplatz, the main square in the downtown area. The Hauptbahnhof and the Jahnplatz are connected by subway lines 1, 2 and 3, which run regularly throughout the day.

Both conference hotels, the Mövenpick Hotel and the Hotel Bremen, are in short walking distances to both the Hauptbahnhof and the Jahnplatz. The one-way fare to and from the university (including a transfer to the subway) is 3 DM. Ticket can be bought from machines (at most bus stops) and from the driver.
