Tübingen contains a Green Zone, where environmental badges are obligatory for every vehicle. This measure was taken to cut down the load of particulate matter. The "town of short distances" offers numerous possibilities for parking at the border of the Old Town. Shops and sights, municipal offices and institutions are mostly located in centre; further destinations are easy to access with public transportation. Shared taxis and night buses make a nightlife without car possible. A well-developed network of bike paths makes it easy to get around in town. At specific bus stops it is possible to take bikes along in the bus.
