  • The free pass for people under 31 years of age will remain in effect until 31 December and the 50% reduction on multi-journey tickets will remain in effect until 31 January 2025
  • The measure affects Tram d’Alacant, Tram de Castelló, Metrovalencia, Metrobus and intercity buses of the Generalitat de Catalunya

The plenary session of the Council has approved the decree-law extending the temporary fare reductions in certain public transport services under the jurisdiction of the Generalitat for a period of six months.

Specifically, this decree-law affects TRAM d’Alacant Tram de Castelló, Metrovalencia , Metrobus and intercity buses of the Generalitat.

The temporary reduction of 50% of the price of transport passes and multi-journey tickets, excluding the round-trip ticket, in land transport services under the jurisdiction of the Generalitat will be in force until 31 January 2025.

In addition, the temporary free travel for young people under 31 years of age on the aforementioned means of transport will be valid until 31 December.

In the current inflationary economic situation, certain measures have been approved for the purpose of reducing the fares of public transport tickets for people, such as the previous decree-laws approved by the Council, with the aim of helping to address situations of social and economic vulnerability, promoting the use of public transport and sustainable mobility.

At present, the inflation rate is still far from the European Central Bank’s medium-term target, so the Council has considered it appropriate to extend both the free public transport fare for young people under 31 years of age and the reduction in fares for public transport multi-journey tickets for six months.
