All foreign members of the Olympic teams and their companions were transported free of charge by the BVG and all other transportation facilities under its control on showing their Olympic identity cards. In order to enable the other Olympic guests to use the means of communication of the BVG over a longer period while only paying once, it was decided to introduce day tickets and 10-day tickets. These tickets could be used on all the regular service routes of the BVG an unlimited number of times. The price of the day tickets was fixed at 1.50 RM. and that of the 10-day ticket at 13.50 RM. Apart from this the usual tariffs of the Berlin transport services remained unchanged. The special omnibus service route running to the Reich Sport Field conveyed passengers for the uniform price of 50 pfennigs per journey without breaking their journey. The day tickets and 10-day tickets were available on these routes on paying an additional 25 pfennigs per journey. The fare on the special route to the Olympic Village was 60 pfennigs.
In order to deal with 20,000 to 25,000 persons per hour the Underground provided a two minute service with eigth coach trains. The trains were so timed that the platforms were not overcrowded and there was no interruption in the service. In addition to increasing the usual number of trains there were two series of reserve trains which could be put into operation by the management of the Underground as the occasion and the traffic demanded. The times for these trains were so arranged that they could be put on and taken off in such a way that the regular time-table of the usual train service was not interrupted or altered in any way. Because of the numerous facilities of changing on the Underground on to the direct "A" line running to the Reich Sport Field, it was easy to reach this spot by Underground from every part of Berlin.
In addition to the tram service Nos. 72 and 93, which ran direct to the Reich Sport Field, it was considered advisable to put on extra tram services to handle the traffic bound for the Reich Sport Field. Accordingly three special lines were run as well, Nos. 106, 145 and 158.
Besides this those tram services which ran along the Heer Strasse to the Reich Sport Field, such as Nos. 58 and 75, were also used by the visitors going to the Reich Sport Field.
Numerous reserve cars were provided for the service Nos. 72, 93, 58 and 75, so that the trams ran every VV - 1 minute to the Reich Sport Field or from there to town after the performances. The extensive sidings at the terminus made it possible to have a large number of trains waiting at the end of the performances which were quite adequate to deal with even the biggest crowds. As there was no regular omnibus service to the Reich Sport Field, three special services were introduced from the Town Hall in Steglitz, the Anhalter Station and Alexanderplatz. There were four further services which ran on special occasions from the Zoo Station, Bayerischer Platz, Stettiner Station and Zeughaus on Unter den Linden. The omnibus service was a kind of express service, the buses running as specials without keeping to any of the usual bus stops.
