The GVH network links the diverse parts of Hannover and its remote areas, enabling visitors and residents to get where they want, quickly and at reasonable cost. GVH services offer the region efficient, environmentally friendly travel alternatives. The combined mobility provided by the GVH helps to ensure Hannover as a center of commerce, finance, culture and entertainment.

Hannover City Council's 'City Views 2002' citizens' survey shows that no other city dwellers use their public transport more often than Hannoverians.
And since 1970 the Greater Hannover Transport Association (GVH) has strengthened its position and improved its service in uniting three well run transportation companies under one roof:
üstra, RegioBus, der metronom and DB Regio.
