The municipality of Arad, in western Romania, will cut the public transport fee, including the utilisation of trams and buses, to RON 1 (under EUR 0.2) per day, in an attempt to discourage the utilisation of personal cars and achieve lower air pollution, according to Agerpres . The municipality also announced new trams, produced locally in the same city, will be added with European financing. For comparison, a 90-minute public transport ticket in Bucharest costs RON 3, a 24-hour pass costs RON 8, and the price of a subway ticket is RON 5. The mayor of Arad, Călin Bibarț, announced on Tuesday, May 12, that public transport with RON 1 per day will soon become a reality, the draft decision having all the approvals to be put to the vote in the Local Municipal Council.
