She says that the free surface transit could convince more people to leave their cars at home and contribute to the reduction of traffic congestion.
“I want to underline the fact that I will apply these measures in a reasonable period of time,” said Firea.
The new mayor said that her plan includes the acquisition of 300 new buses and the transformation of the state-owned transit company RATB into a commercial company. She also said that Bucharest will have special bus lanes."
