Design

The buses have 43 seats and 45 standing places. Since the new vehicles were not yet available when the OM1 line was launched in December 2023, they will only come into service in 2024 – when they will feature the unmistakable OM1 design.

Until then, you can travel on the buses operated by SBV Janßen GmbH & Co. KG from Saterland, which will be operating the route on behalf of the districts of Vechta and Cloppenburg.
