"Rīgas satiksme" constantly monitors passenger flows in public transport and such a procedure will remain unchanged in the future. Information about cabin occupancy is provided by both public transport drivers and checking customer applications. Also, all the latest "Rīgas satiksme" vehicles are equipped with automatic passenger counting systems, thus, when the vehicle cabin reaches 50% full, the dispatchers receive a signal that allows them to react quickly and assign an additional vehicle.
Reduction of risk of COVID-19 transmission requires involvement of everyone, so it is important that citizens have as little social contact as possible and use public transport only when it is really needed.
