Traffic and Transportation
Tamm lies directly adjacent to both federal highway B 27 and autobahn A 81 (Exit Ludwigsburg-Nord), both running between Stuttgart and Heilbronn. Landstraße (highway) L 1110 connects to Asperg and Bissingen, Kreisstraße (district road) K 1671 links Tamm with Markgröningen and Bietigheim. One curious side note is that there are almost no traffic lights in Tamm - most much-frequented intersections have been replaced by roundabouts.
Tamm station is also on the Franconia Railway and is served by the Stuttgart S-Bahn system, being the second-to-last outbound stop of line S5 to Bietigheim. Trains leave every half hour from 4:40 a.m. to 0:40 a.m., travel time to Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof is 23 minutes. A bus line (RBS line 536) commutes between the station and the "Breuningerland" mall via Hohenstange suburb.
