The municipality suggested a reference fare of 6 lei for trips by public transport in Chisinau. The fare will be lower in the case of season tickets that will now be issued for periods of one month to half a year, IPN reports, quoting the methodology presented by the local authorities.
The fare of 6 lei is proposed both for trips by bus and by trolleybus in the capital city and in the suburban settlements. In the case of a one-month season ticket, the price of a trip will be 3.9 lei, of a three-month season ticket – 3.3 lei, while of a six-month season ticket – 2.7 lei.
The municipality plans to extend the list of persons who benefit from free trips by adding primary school students and to offer travel concessions to minors from one-parent families and families with many children and to education system employees who work in institutions based in Chisinau, except for personnel of higher education establishments.
The public transport fares in the municipality of Chisinau were modified last in 2009. Currently, a trip by trolleybus costs 2 lei, while a trip by bus - 3 lei.
