The University of Zielona Góra consists of 2 campuses and a few individual buildings located in different parts of the city. In order to move between them smoothly and quickly, you can use the following solutions of the municipal public transport:
In the modern bus interchange station situated next to the train station, you can almost directly transfer from a train into a yellow-white-and-green bus. You can catch here each bus line. What is interesting, as many as 80% of Zielona Góra’s buses are electric! Thanks to the city public transport, you can freely move across the whole city. On the basis of a Polish student ID card (which foreign students will receive after their arrival), you can go for free by a city public bus (up to 26 years of age). However, if you do not have the student ID, you have to buy a ticket at a bus stop or inside a bus (a basic full-price ticket costs 3 zł and is valid for one hour). The timetable and other useful information are available at: www.mzk.zgora.pl. You can also easily find a bus connection via the following app: jakdojade.pl.
From March to November 350 city bikes, including cargo bicycles and tandems, are available for your use. The hire of a bike is easy: you can do this directly at one of the stations located across Zielona Góra (also at the university’s campuses) or via an application operated by Android or iOS. First 20 minutes of riding are free! For further information, visit www.zielonogorskirowermiejski.pl.
You can hire them by means of an application. The initial payment during registration totals 25 zł. The starting payment amounts to 2 zł. Then you will pay 0.50 zł for each minute of a ride or a stop. In contrast to the city bikes, there are no scooter stations. Scooters can be left in any place within the designated area.
