Citizens of Bulgaria's capital will pay BGN 1 for a regular ticket for one trip in the public transport since Tuesday, as decided by the Sofia Municipal Council about two weeks ago.
The proposal for the 43% increase over the current price of BGN 0,7 was filed by the Deputy Mayor Velizar Stoilov and the municipality's Transport Commission Chair Radoslav Toshev, who say the measure is motivated by the rising fuel prices.
The ten-trip ticket will cost BGN 7,5 up from the current BGN 6, while a monthly ticket is to cost BGN 50.
The new measure provides for no changes in the prices of the monthly tickets for students, retirees, disabled people and orphans.
The increase came although in April Mayor Boyko Borisov publicly declared that the price of the transport ticket could not be raised unless the service improved.
