Councilman Traffic and Transportation, Javier Iniesta sees necessary to hold a meeting with the Minister of Development, Public Works and Planning, in order to express the concern of the City of Murcia "by rising regular bus ticket, due to the negative impact it has for the promotion of the use of public transport. "

For buses linking Murcia with the districts the ordinary bill passes from 1.50 to 1.85, and "this increase seems exaggerated and do not know its technical justification," he pointed Councilman.

Iniesta has shown its willingness to reach agreements and collaboration between the two institutions, although this decision has missed a previous procedure as being able to treat this as previously, "especially when you are working on the implementation of the total bonus to Murcia ".

On the other hand, "we applaud the bonus policy to be applied to achieve greater use of public transport is gradually gaining community, as reflected in the latest data we manage and we will public soon."

He added that "for those who usually use public transport, this price reduction is positive, although the increase in the regular ticket could be reduced and ultimately what we want is that the public service is good, sustainable and appropriate schedules, and this way we are working from the city of Murcia. "

With the increase applied by the Autonomous Community, the price of the journey between Murcia and 55 districts stood at 1.15 euros with General Transhipment Bono, 37.8 percent less than the new bonus single ticket (1.85 euros ) In addition to the free transfers are included in all lines of the municipality of Murcia and its metropolitan area.
