# Safety: Have you ever felt uncomfortable on a bus or train? | VRR

September 14, 2026

Safe travel on public transport: free guided tours for passengers in 2025
==========================================================================

 Have you ever felt uncomfortable on a bus or train and wondered how to react correctly in such moments? Almost everyone is familiar with such situations. To address precisely this, the Competence Centre for Safety NRW (KCS) is offering two safety tours for the first time. You will gain exciting insights behind the scenes of public transport and learn how security is organised, what measures are taken and how you yourself can actively contribute to a better sense of security.

 Insights into the world of security
-----------------------------------

Together with the Federal Police, Deutsche Bahn, Ruhrbahn and BOGESTRA, the KCS provides practical information on how technical security solutions work and what services are available at railway stations and in vehicles. You will also receive **practical tips** for everyday life on local transport. Particularly helpful: during the guided tours, you have the opportunity to put your questions directly to the experts. The aim of the format is to **make safety tangible** and **strengthen** your personal **sense of security** . The first dates were successfully held in Essen and Bochum.
