Changes in passenger flow on working days
To reduce the risk of the spreading of virus COVID 19, everybody must be involved, so it is important that people have as little social contacts as possible and would use public transport during the emergency situation only when there is no alternative. To reduce the spreading of COVID-19, the company calls on clients to stay at home, go on foot or by bicycle.
“Rīgas satiksme” thanks everybody who observes the emergency situation and moves as little as possible. We also thank everybody and particularly medical staff, who are working selflessly to reduce the further spreading of the virus, as well as all members of our staff, who continue to fulfil their duties honestly every day and ensure public transport service.
