If you are unable to use public transport, the Bas-Rhin Departmental Council (Conseil départemental du Bas-Rhin) may cover your travel costs, depending on your disability status (80% disability rating, or 50% if you receive the Allocation d'éducation de l'enfant handicapéAEEH allowance)

University staff

With the sustainable travel benefit (Forfait mobilité durable), the university encourages staff to choose environmentally friendly travel options such as cycling or carpooling to work. It also covers part of the cost of public transport subscriptions.

Benefit from reduced rates

Depending on your status and income, you can access reduced rates for bike rentals, public transport in Strasbourg and its surrounding areas, and the TER Grand Est train network. Local associations can also help you find a bike and maintain it at a low cost.

To benefit from reduced prices for certain city services, including public transport, you will need your household income reference (quotient familial unique). The University of Strasbourg’s Student Support and Welfare Office (Mission solidarité) can calculate it for you.
