Local transport within Bamberg relies exclusively on buses. More than 20 routes connect the outer quarters and some villages to the Central Bus Station (ZOB). In addition, there are several 'Night Lines' (which run to midnight) and some park-and-ride lines from car parking facilities on the periphery to the town centre. However, many trips around Bamberg can be done by foot in less than 30 minutes.
Buses run from the city centre to Feldkirchenstraße (the Winter School location) during the day, at least every 10 minutes. You can take buses 914 (direction Gundelsheim Rathaus) or 907 (direction Drosendorf/Memmelsdorf) and exit at the Feldkirchenstraße bus stop, or buses 931 (direction P+R Kronacher Str.) and 901 (direction Bamberg Gartenstadt) and exit at the Kloster-Banz-Straße bus stop. After 19:00 the frequency is reduced, but there are still connections. A single journey currently costs €1.80 or a weekly travel pass around €13. These are available from machines at many bus stops.
The route map of the local transport company is available here.

The daily timetable of the Bamberg transport service ends at 8pm. Thereafter, four night buses (935, 936, 937 and 938) run in the urban area at 40-minute intervals. These lines depart daily from the central bus station until 00:00 and bus 935 to Kantstraße at 00:50. Also on Friday and Saturday all four lines run at 00:50 and 01:30. For the exact departure time, check the bus schedule at the bus stops or alternatively here.
At night the call-line taxi is an alternative option to taking a bus. The service runs along bus routes and operating times can be seen in bus timetables. To be picked up, you should call 0951-14-443, at least half an hour before the departure time specified in the timetable. When calling you must state which bus stop you want to be picked up from and where you want to be dropped off. Bear in mind that you can only be picked up/dropped off at a regular bus stop.
