New 'Beach Bus Line' for Geneva

Tuesday, 20 May 2025 06:30

A new bus line will start later this month – serving the beaches around Geneva.

Dubbed ‘The Beach Line’ the bus will run from Fridays and across the weekend, stopping at various swimming spots around the lake.

It will have the number 29 and will start on the 29th May – Ascension Day – which is a holiday in Geneva.

The TPG hopes the new service will alleviate the pressure on other lines which can get very busy over the summer.

It will run every 15 to 20 minutes on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.
