KNUT: Flexible local transport for the north of Frankfurt

In addition to buses and trains, the KNUT on-demand shuttle is operating in the north of Frankfurt since 15 December 2024. Since then, passengers have benefited from a very flexible local transport service in the evening and at night until the early morning. Electric minibuses are in operation from 6 PM to 6 AM - with no fixed departure times and no fixed routes. 

KNUT stops at almost every home

With KNUT there are no traditional stops. KNUT takes you almost to your front door - for just a few euros.

KNUT is on your schedule

Unlike buses and trains, there is no timetable with KNUT. You order Knut when you want to travel and the electric shuttle usually arrives in less than 10 minutes and takes you almost to your front door.

A ride can be ordered via the RMV on-demand app or by phone.

The electric shuttles, one of which is barrier-free, create a connection between Berkersheim, Bonames, Frankfurter Berg, Harheim, Kalbach-Riedberg, Nieder-Erlenbach, Nieder-Eschbach and the north of Eschersheim and Bad Vilbel train station (west side).
