Poznań offers an elaborate public transit network of trams and buses. Schedules put up at stops provide standard travel times. The city's trams and buses carry on-board electronic information displays backed up with a voice address system.
Conference participants may use public transport free of charge provided they present a conference identification badge bearing their name. The badges will be distributed at the conference venue upon registration.
All of Poznań's centre is a paid parking zone. Curbside parking meters are placed in city streets to collect parking charges as applicable in specific zones. It is recommended that cars be left in guarded parking lots. A number of buffer lots have been set up around the outer perimeter of the parking zone.
Poznań is served by several taxicab companies. The best way to summon a taxi is by telephone. To that end, you may ask for the assistance of a City Information Point attendant.
With the environmental focus of the Conference as well as your comfort and convenience in mind, additional bus and tramlines have been brought into operation in the City of Poznań, enabling you to reach the conference venue and return to your hotel efficiently and in an "environmentally friendly" manner.
Lines (L and H) will run along the Airport-City Centre and Airport-Hotels routes every 60 minutes. Special bus lines, with symbols from C1 to C11, will run to Poznań International Fair from hotels located far from the city centre and those with the biggest number of guests. These lines will run from 8 am to 10am along the Hotels - PIF route and between 5pm and 7pm along the PIF - Hotels route.
An extra tramline "D" will also be in operation.
Hybrid-engine buses will also be used to operate these special lines and Poznań is the first city in Poland to have such buses in its public transport system fleet. In addition to the hybrid buses made locally in Poznań and used by daily commuters around many urban areas of Europe, a number of such vehicles have been dedicated to serve COP14 participants.
Please ask at your hotel how best to reach the venue (Poznań International Fair grounds) by public transport. All trams and buses stopping in its vicinity will bear the conference logo.
