Coaches in Lucerne
Dear tour operators and coach drivers,
A warm welcome to Lucerne. To ensure arrivals and departures are as efficient as possible, travel companies and coach drivers are asked to observe the following five points on bringing coaches to Lucerne City, and to use the «iParkiere Bus» app for navigation on arrival.
5 key points:
Passengers can board and alight coaches at six centrally located coach stops in Lucerne City as well as three large coach parks and two other coach parks with time-limited parking (charges apply). After letting passengers disembark, the coach continues to one of the available parking spaces and waits there until passengers are ready to be picked up again. Available spaces in coach parks and at coach stops can be checked online in real time.
