context_page_description: The Ringzug, also called the 3er-Ringzug is a passenger transport network in the districts of Tuttlingen, Rottweil and Schwarzwald-Baar in southern Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The Ringzug went into regular operations on 31 August 2003 and has operated in its current form since 12 December 2004. The concept of the Ringzug is the operation of a clockface timetable, coordinated with a variety of other buses and train services, over an S-Bahn-like network in a rural environment. In March 2006, the passenger association Pro Bahn described the Ringzug as an exemplary public transport system at its 2006 passenger transport awards. The Ringzug has aroused interest beyond the region and can point to steadily rising passenger numbers and declining deficits.
context_section_description: By 2004, DB Station&Service established 18 new stations and reactivated 16 abandoned stations for the Ringzug operations. Some existing stations were moved closer to their respective settlements. The average distance between the stations is 1.9 kilometres. All municipalities and parts of municipalities lying on lines are usually connected, so that the large towns will continue to have one or even several stations. Many of the Ringzug stations are request stops, most have access for the disabled.
