Ticket prices rise by over 7%: BVG in the crisis! What now?
Berlin, Deutschland - Ticket prices in local public transport in Berlin and Brandenburg rise by over seven percent! From now on, a single ticket costs 3.80 euros - that is 30 cents more than before. This increase particularly affects occasional users, who, for example, now have to pay 7.60 euros for a weekly physiotherapy for a return trip. A quick visit to the Christmas market will also cost an additional 15.20 euros for two people.
This price increase comes at a very unfavorable time: the BVG has been in the largest crisis in years. There is a lack of subway trains and bus drivers, delays are the order of the day and the bus network was thinned out. Instead of lowering the prices, the BVG is forced to increase tariffs due to increased personnel costs and energy costs. Many Berliners are now thinking about whether they shouldn't switch to their own car better, which could stall the traffic turnaround considerably.
