The EMBL shuttle connects the EMBL Heidelberg site with the Hotel ISG and Guest Houses.
The morning and evening shuttle service for EMBL employees is free of charge and runs between the Boxberg Guest Houses, Hotel ISG and EMBL.
The evening shuttle is a roundtrip shuttle service, going from the EMBL main entrance via Guesthouse Boxberg to the Hotel ISG/Mombertplatz and back, and there are three trips additionally down to Alois-Link-Platz and Bismarckplatz. Also there are two new trips available to HD train station starting at 17:00 & 18:00.
The shuttle service is a voluntary benefit offered by EMBL and is designated to transport employees when going home from EMBL after work. People living in the Guesthouses wishing to go downtown for private purposes are to use public transportation and not the shuttle! They may be asked to get off the shuttle.
There has been a change in timetable: the shuttle service starts now on a round trip from EMBL to the Guesthouse Boxberg and the Hotel ISG / Guesthouse Eichwald also daily at 16:40. This trip is designated primarily for parents with children. If there are spare places left on the bus, employees without children are welcome to join as well. There is also enough space on the bus for at least 3 prams.

In general, the shuttle service is provided by our EMBL drivers. In case of absence of one of the drivers the entire evening service will be provided by the external company ABS. The passenger capacity is then limited to 7 seats. Alternatively please use the RufTaxi 1004 on-call.
Please note that taxi rides will not be paid for by EMBL. If you wish to take a taxi instead of the shuttle it will be at your own expense.
EMBL Hotel ISG and Guest Houses provide accommodation for scientists and visitors to EMBL Heidelberg for up to months at a time.
