Free Public Transport Extended for Students and Seniors This Summer
The Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Energy announced today an extension of free public transport for specific groups this summer. The initiative will apply to students and pupils who previously purchased monthly subsidized tickets for June. This measure aims to promote the use of public transport among young people, allowing them to utilize their free tickets for various activities.
The Ministry has implemented a decision to extend the validity of subsidized tickets for several categories. This extension automatically applies to pensioners aged over 65, individuals holding an EU card for the benefit of the disabled, and war veterans. Previously, the policy was focused on supporting students and pupils.
However, the expanded program now includes a broader range of individuals benefiting from free public transport. The Ministry’s goal is to encourage greater utilization of public transport services across the board. This extension underscores the government’s commitment to accessible and sustainable transportation options.
The initiative builds upon the existing framework for free public transport, ensuring continued support for key demographics.
