Car
If you are driving from Aarau, take the A1 motorway towards Zürich. Follow the signs for Zürich and merge onto A1/A4. Continue for about 30 km, then take the exit towards Zürich-City. Follow the signs to the city center. Once you reach Zürich, look for signs for Limmatquai. There is limited parking in the area, so you may need to park in a nearby parking garage and walk to the UBS Polybahn at Limmatquai 144.
Public Transportation
Start by taking a train from Aarau to Zürich Hauptbahnhof (Zürich HB). Trains run frequently, and the journey takes approximately 30 minutes. Upon arrival at Zürich HB, follow the signs to the trams. Take tram line 4 or 15 towards 'Tiefenbrunnen' or 'Bahnhofquai/HB' respectively. Get off at the stop 'Central' (the third stop). From Central, it's a short walk to Limmatquai. Head down the steps towards the river and walk along Limmatquai until you reach Limmatquai 144, where the UBS Polybahn is located.
