Verkehrsgesellschaft Görlitz

VGG was co-owned by Transdev Germany (49%) and the town council of Görlitz (51%), and was a member of ZVON transport association.

VGG was founded in 1996 as a subsidiary of the public services company Stadtwerke Görlitz, then wholly owned by the town council.

In April 2001, the town council decided to sell the majority of its shares in Stadtwerke Görlitz to Vivendi Environnement, known since 2003 as Veolia.

VGG did operate the two tram lines and six bus routes in Görlitz.

[2] A study, performed in 1997 by the Görlitz town council and funded by the state of Saxony, confirmed that the share of public transport in the overall urban traffic in Görlitz is higher (16%) than in other cities in eastern Saxony, such as Bautzen (about 8%).
