The subsidy from IROP will help with the purchase of 12 additional electric buses

The modern low-floor electric bus with registration number 414 and registration mark 7H0 2414 is parked at the stop connected to a quick charger.

The transport company succeeded with two applications for support from the Integrated Regional Operational Programme (IROP), thanks to which it will be able to continue renewing its fleet of emission-free vehicles in the coming years. Both projects include the purchase of 12 new electric buses, with delivery scheduled for 2028 and 2029. The transport company plans to purchase another […]

30 years ago, the era of low-floor vehicles began in Hradec

A view of the Karosa Renault Citybus (fleet number 101) in a red, yellow, and white paint scheme, parked on the paved courtyard of the depot in front of garage doors with a red roof. Overhead catenary wires and a street light pole are visible above the depot area.

In 1996, the Public Transit Company of the City of Hradec Králové embarked on a path that gradually led to a fully low-floor fleet. Today, we take low-floor buses and trolleybuses as a matter-of-course part of public mass transit. Thirty years ago, however, they represented a significant technological novelty and their acquisition meant a crucial decision in the renewal of the fleet. It was precisely the year 1996 that marked a [...]

The new Ford Ranger goes where heavy machinery cannot reach

Side view of a red emergency vehicle of the Transport Company with a yellow stripe and the inscription „POHOTOVOSTNÍ VOZIDLO“ (EMERGENCY VEHICLE). A Rothlehner 140P red aerial work platform arm with a working cage is mounted on the truck bed. The vehicle is parked in an open area in front of the modern covered public transport terminal building in Hradec Králové.

One vehicle, many tasks. At first glance, it resembles an off-road pick-up truck. In reality, however, beneath the body of the new Ford Ranger lies a technically exceptionally sophisticated work vehicle built directly to the requirements of the Hradec Králové Public Transit Company. The new aerial work platform can reach even places where large trucks cannot, allowing work on the overhead contact line under […]

From idea to component in a few days. 3D printing helps overhead contact lines too

Detailed top-down view of steel and insulated components of a overhead line turnout crossing. A human index finger in the foreground points to a 3D-printed plastic cable fastening component. In the background down in the open area, a man in a green t-shirt is visible.

A 3D printer in an IT department does not just have to be used for producing small models and technical curiosities. At the transport company, it is now also becoming a tool for developing real operational components. Cooperation between overhead line workers and IT has already brought several generations of prototype elements designed to help not only at trolley wire crossing points. The advantages are the speed of development, low cost […]

When the only road to Rusek does not lead there. An unprecedented closure

View from the bus interior through the windshield at the driver and the road leading over a narrow green steel truss bridge surrounded by trees. In the foreground, the dashboard with a ticket validation terminal and the protective glass partition of the driver's cab are visible.

For a passenger, a service disruption may look simple: a road is closed, a bus gets a detour route, and the timetable changes. But what if practically the only usable road leads to a city district and its complete closure cuts the bus off from its regular route? The transport company is dealing with precisely such a situation due to the closure of the road to Rusek. In terms of scope and preparation method, it is […]

Jan Havlík – Head of the Top Management Center

A man in glasses and a light blue shirt is sitting in an office chair at a desk with his arms crossed over his chest, looking at the camera. Behind him on the desk are two computer monitors — a block diagram is displayed on the left one, and a map on the right one. In the left background, a wallboard with notes and papers is visible.

One of us When people in the city don't know about us, it means everything is working. If a trolleybus is driving through the streets of Hradec, most passengers probably don't think about everything that has to work several meters above their heads and where the electricity in the overhead lines actually comes from. And according to Jan Havlík, that is exactly how it should be. The head of the overhead line center […]

Logistics Event of the Year: Shuttle Service to Rock for People 

A red-and-yellow bus with a Rock for People display is arriving at the bus stop, where a crowd of visitors is standing in a grassy area.

Logistics Event of the Year: Shuttle Service to Rock for People Festival Rock for People is one of the biggest events in Hradec Králové every year, and this year it presented a significant transportation challenge as well. From June 9th to 15th, the Hradec Králové Transport Company, commissioned by the organizers, provided extraordinary, non-public transportation for festival attendees.
