From December 12, we run support buses between Uppsala - Tierp - Gävle and Skutskär
The support buses run Monday - Friday starting December 12. It is about three support lines with a total of 24 trips Monday - Friday. The buses are mainly run as direct routes between the larger towns, where there are no alternative connections with other UL traffic. Information about the buses can be found in the travel planner in the UL app and here at ul.se.
The timetable for the support lines allows for journeys at times that have many travelers and that reach large workplaces and schools. The buses supplement the train departures found in the reduced timetable, which starts on 11 December.
The bus lines are:
Line 963 runs the route Gävle-Uppsala
Line 964 runs the route Skutskär-Tierp-Uppsala
Line 965 runs the route Gävle-Tierp-Tobo-Örbyhus-Uppsala.

Buy ticket before boarding
To travel with the emergency lines, you need a valid UL ticket or Movingo ticket (Mälartåg's single tickets are not valid on the emergency buses). The ticket must be purchased before you board the bus, as the emergency buses may not have a ticket machine. You can buy a UL ticket in the UL app, a ticket machine or from one of our sales representatives.
These bus lines are not visible in the UL app's Bus on map function.
