Aargau Verkehr AG (AVA) is a Swiss transport company. It was formed on 19 June 2018 from the merger of BDWM Transport and the Wynental and Suhrental Railway. The new company operates both rail and bus services, with most of the latter being provided through its wholly owned subsidiary Limmat Bus AG.
Whilst based in the canton of Aargau, the company also operates services in the cantons of Zürich and Lucerne.




History


Aargau Verkehr formed on 19 June 2018 by the merger of BDWM Transport and the Wynental and Suhrental Railway. The meger led to the dissolving of the joint AAR bus+bahn brand that had previously united the Wynental and Suhrental Railway and the Busbetrieb Aarau.
