908 passengers were carried on the bus route No. 3A in the first days
“Rīgas satiksme” informs that 908 passengers were carried on the bus route No. 3A in the first days since its establishment. On 15 March, the bus No. 3A carried 411 passengers, but on 16 March the number of passengers was even higher – 497. This bus route was established with the aim to reduce the flow of passengers in the busiest section of the bus route No. 3. During the busiest morning hours, the bus No. 3A runs the route “Daugavgrīva – Brīvības bulvāris”, but in the evening – the route “Brīvības piemineklis – Daugavgrīva”.
The replacement of the bus routes No. 1 and No. 5 with trolleybuses was successfully implemented as well, where both various technical configurations and passenger information had to be ensured. According to the information provided by public transport drivers, passengers were aware of the replacement of buses by trolleybuses and there were no misunderstandings.
Mitigating the risk of COVID-19 propagation requires the involvement of each individual, so it is vital for everyone to minimize social contacts and refrain from using public transport during the emergency unless this is absolutely necessary.
