Central Bus Station Esslingen

The new central bus station (ZOB) in Esslingen impresses with its sophisticated architecture and size.
It has a total of 18 bus stops and is part of a clearly structured ensemble of train station and forecourt. After almost two years of construction work, the missing link in a whole series of urban planning innovations has been completed at this entrance to the city. The special trademark of the ZOB is the almost 2000 square meter, slightly curved glass roof.
It blends carefully and harmoniously into the cityscape and at the same time emphasizes the existing station building. A total of 1,300 glass elements protect visitors from wind and weather and allow light onto the bus platforms during the day. In the dark, the very efficient LED lighting creates a bright and friendly atmosphere. It is particularly easy to maintain and at the same time conserves resources. The individual roof elements are illuminated with Nova-2 FLASHAAR® MiniLine-2 lights.
With 2100 lm/m and 24 W/m, this LED light enables powerful and energy-efficient lighting. Transparent 60° linear lenses direct the neutral white light downwards onto the bus platform and at the same time ensure uniform illumination of the glass triangles. The LED lights are attached with angled ML MountingClips, which enable quick and targeted installation. Each illuminated ceiling element has its own small distribution box. It was delivered ready for connection and includes a converter and a Dali dimmer. With this, the dimming of each light triangle is possible without any problems.
