Making School Buses More Appealing: Fare Reduction Initiative
The government’s fare reduction initiative, led by Transport Minister Alexis Vafeades, slashes school bus passes in Limassol and Nicosia from €200 to €30 annually and from €10 to €5 monthly, aiming to attract an extra 2,000 schoolchildren and ease traffic congestion. With an investment of €9.5 million, this initiative not only lightens families’ financial burdens but also promotes a greener, more sustainable future by reducing car usage and carbon emissions in urban areas.
