"Rīgas satiksme" harmonises tram timetables for passengers’ comfort and changes schedules of trams 3, 5, 7 and 9 as of October 1

"Rīgas satiksme" harmonises public transport timetables for passengers comfort and changes timetables of tram routes No. 3, 5, 7 and 9 for workdays and holidays as of October 1. Changes have been made to improve the possibilities for passengers to transfer from one tram route to another.

As tram in Riga is a public transport which is less subject to traffic jams, harmonising tram schedules proves to be the most effective. Adjusting public transport schedules to those of trams will allow passengers to get from one Riga district to other faster, making transfers in the city centre.

Before changing the schedules, the company studied passengers’ habits of using public transport thoroughly, using the data provided by the electronic payment system (data on registration of e-tickets from public transport stops and the use of various public transport routes), measurements of passenger flows, as well as customer proposals. The number of runs will not change.
