It’s smarter to travel in group, new campaign for De Lijn
Public bus company De Lijn has launched a new campaign showing it’s smarter to take the bus or tram. Kick off is a commercial showing a group of ants beating an aardvark in a clever way. Pay-off : It’s smarter to travel in group, take the bus. The 3D-production was done by CC (Creative Conspiracy). De Lijn is also working on an smartphone game  featuring the ants of the commercial.
In follow up campaigns, De Lijn will also give the proof why it’s smarter to travel in group. These campaigns will focus on the nature friendliness of public transport and the fact that taking the bus gets you faster through traffic and helps you to get rid of the stress of finding a parking space.

To save trees, public bus company De Lijn hands out its flyers online
If you take the bus or tram, you are already thinking about the environment. With the Green Pass (Bospas) you get the chance to do an extra effort for nature. For each Green Pass sold, public bus company De Lijn will plant one tree. And with 10.000 Green Passes sold already, we can start making plans to plant a real forest. The flyers announcing this action were distributed online, in order to save trees

New medium : De Lijn uses VAT-receipts to promote the night bus
In Belgium it is obligatory to give VAT receipts with the bills in restaurants. Bus Company De Lijn is the first to use these VAT receipts as an advertising medium. On each receipt we added a message, inviting people to think about their choice of transport. If they consider taking the night bus, they don’t have to worry about ordering that extra drink.
. The branded VAT receipts will be distributed by 50 restaurants in 5 major cities. Later on another 30 restaurants will be added to this list.

‘De Lijn’ uses real bus tickets as business cards
Flemish public transportation company De Lijn uses real bus & tram tickets to replace the traditional business cards of their employees. The bus & tram tickets are made from paper and are about the same size as regular business cards.
Duval Guillaume created bus & business cards for workers at De Lijn with their name and personal details printed on.
Since the original bus & tram ticket are used, you actually receive a free ride with a bus or tram as someone from De Lijn hands you over their business card. Therefore the baseline on each ‘bus ticket’ slash ‘business card’ reads: “You can always reach me with this card.”
