Commuter tickets (job tickets)

Would you prefer to commute to work by train rather than by car? Then the subsidised job tickets are perhaps of interest to you. The following are available at present:

  • DB Job Ticket
  • marego Job Ticket
  • GVH-Jobticket

The discounted annual ticket is billed by direct debit directly between you and the respective transport provider/association.

Free parking

If you’re coming to work by car, you can of course park for free and there are plenty of charging spaces for recharging your electric vehicle (the number of charging spaces available is being continually increased).

And, obviously, you can also park your bicycle, motorcycle or flying broom with us for free. There are around 3,000 covered bicycle bays at the Wolfsburg site alone.

The following car parks in Wolfsburg are all part of the route covered by the in-house shuttle network “Move”: Allerpark (behind the stadium), Nordwest (at Research and Development) and the Service Academy (Kästorf).

Free internal bus shuttle (Wolfsburg)

We offer you the option of our free, in-house “Move” shuttle at the Wolfsburg site. Whether you’re going to your workplace in the morning or heading out to an appointment during the day, several bus lines ensure you reach your destination on the plant grounds or in IT:City quickly and conveniently. A number of car parks are located next to the plant gates ensuring you won’t have far to travel from the station or your car. All you need is your plant ID card.

Once on board with us, you’ll meet friendly colleagues, you can use the free Wi-Fi, recharge your mobile phone or, when you’re on your way home, you can find out about connections arriving at the main railway station in Wolfsburg.
