Frankfurt transport map
These two RMV maps from 2019 show Frankfurt's public transport: a schematic plan of the U-Bahn, S-Bahn and tram lines, and a detailed geographic map of every bus, tram and train route in the city and its neighbouring towns, with fare zones.
All local transport in and around Frankfurt belongs to the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV), so one ticket is valid on the U-Bahn, S-Bahn, trams, buses and regional trains within its validity area. The city of Frankfurt forms a single fare zone, numbered 50 on the maps, while trips to neighbouring towns cost more; the airport appears on the 2019 maps as a separate zone, 5090.
Tickets are sold at machines, in the RMV app and, for buses, often from the driver; they are not stamped, so buy them just before you travel. The Deutschlandticket, a monthly subscription, covers all local and regional transport in Germany, including the whole RMV network.

Map of Frankfurt public transports
The RMV network map of Frankfurt for 2019, showing U-Bahn, S-Bahn and tram lines on a single schematic plan, with fare zone 50 covering the city and zone 5090 for the airport.
Each line has its own colour and number, and step-free stations are marked with a wheelchair symbol. The legend is in German and English. Although the lines shown are still the backbone of the network, some routes and timetables have changed since 2019, so check the RMV journey planner for current services.

Map of Frankfurt zones
The complete 2019 RMV line map of Frankfurt am Main, showing all bus, tram, U-Bahn, S-Bahn and regional routes on a geographic base map, from Oberursel and Bad Vilbel to Neu-Isenburg and Offenbach.
Large blue numbers mark the RMV fare zones: 50 for Frankfurt, 5090 for the airport and neighbouring zones such as 36 for Offenbach and 51 for Oberursel. A trip that crosses into another zone needs a different fare, so check the ticket price in the RMV app or at a machine before travelling outside the city.
