In Lithuania, due to high fuel prices, bus and train ticket prices have been halved
In Lithuania, a 50% discount will apply to intercity bus tickets until the end of 2026. The Seimas approved the corresponding decision, and its purpose is to mitigate the consequences of rising fuel prices for the country's residents, reports Delfi.lt.
99 deputies voted for the corresponding proposal from the Ministry of Communications and Transport on November 10. Four voted against, and another four abstained.
According to the ministry's calculations, this measure will cost the state budget approximately 2.8 million euros. The state will compensate bus carriers for their losses.
It is proposed to use the ticket price of each carrier, which was valid on September 1, 2026, as the basis for calculating compensation.
Earlier, the Lithuanian government had already decided to introduce a 50% discount on train tickets. Previously, a similar measure for trains was introduced for two months in the spring.
