The most frequent public TRANSPORT users in Switzerland are – no joke – the Zug-based. Closely followed by the Bernese and people of Zurich. This, at least, if you take the number of their General and half – fare travelcards per capita as an indicator. In these cantons, almost 50 percent of the population have such a subscription.
on average, almost 30 percent of a half-fare travelcard, and 5 percent in Switzerland to a General subscription (GA). On closer examination, large differences between the regions are revealed.
Very clearly, the Western Switzerland and the Ticino, from the fall to the German part of Switzerland. Only 11 percent have, in Ticino, a half-fare travelcard, and less than 1 per cent a GA. Even in urban centers such as Bellinzona and Lugano and its agglomeration, the subscription-density is not higher than 11 percent.
In the West of Switzerland, the picture looks similar. Only the lake of Geneva, and in the cities of Freiburg and Neuenburg many people have similar Subscriptions such as in the German part of Switzerland.
The Canton of Zurich is on 3rd place of the ranking list. Within the Canton, the ranking of the gold coast communities is cited, in which more than 50 percent of the residents of a half-fare travelcard or GA travelcard. The Höri with a good 20 percent, but even there, twice as many residents still have a subscription as in Lugano.
The municipalities with the highest density of subscribers to be found but, surprisingly, in the rural areas of the Bernese Oberland and upper Valais. About the village of Staldenried in the upper Valais, where almost three-quarters of the inhabitants have a subscription.
As a GA, the stronghold of Olten, which is as SBB-hub and Commuter Church, and where about 20 percent of the population have a GA turns out to be.
