“Rīgas satiksme” is constantly monitoring passenger flow in public transport. The passenger flow is monitored by public transport drivers, traffic controllers, as well as ticket inspectors and specially trained staff. Information also comes from the registration of trips and from other technical devices and was analysed. The filling of public transport is monitored also on Easter holidays.
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 other alternative. To reduce the spreading of COVID-19, the company calls on clients to stay at home, go on foot or by bicycle.
