Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe

The Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (lit. 'Berlin Transport Company') is the main public transport company of Berlin, the capital of Germany. It operates the city's U-Bahn (underground), tram, bus, replacement services and ferry networks — while the S-Bahn, Berlin's suburban rail network, is operated separately from BVG. The abbreviation BVG derives from the company's original name, Berliner Verkehrs-Aktiengesellschaft ("Berlin Transport Stock Company"). During the division of Berlin, the company was split into separate operators: BVG in West Berlin and BVB in East Berlin. Following German reunification, the two networks were merged under the present-day Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe name.
