On the way in Leipzig<\/h3> <\/p>\n
By car<\/strong> \nLeipzig has set up low emission zones which may only be entered with the green sticker. If you still drive into the low emission zone, you will have to pay a fine of \u20ac80. \nParking space is scarce in the city centre and it is advisable to leave your car in the Park&Ride car parks outside the city centre.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Public transport<\/strong> \nThe public transport network in the city is very well developed. There are 13 tram lines and numerous buses running at fairly close intervals. In addition, the S-Bahn Mitteldeutschland runs to some of the city’s surrounding districts. \nThe trams (except for line 2) all stop in front of Leipzig’s main railway station.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
By bike<\/strong> \nThe network of cycle paths in the city is still quite incomplete and could be expanded. The most important facilities and sights are easily accessible by bicycle.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>
