Visitors of "Rīgas satiksme" website chose new design for e-tickets
Late in 2013 yellow e-tickets will be decorated with a drawing made by Jānis Valdmanis. It was decided by visitors of the "Rīgas satiksme" website, who voted for the drawing to be printed on the e-ticket. The drawing of Jānis collected 1936 votes from the total of 9108 votes. The voting lasted more than one month – from May 27 till July 1.

The second place was won by B. Knaģe (1614 votes) and the third place by E. Fūrmane (1329). 17 drawings made by children were put on the vote.

It should be reminded that on May 23 Rīgas satiksme organised an event in tram depot No. 5 at Brīvības Street 191 for former patients of the Hemato-oncologic Department of the Children Clinical Hospital who have won cancer successfully. At the beginning children went for a guided tour of the depot to see how the depot works. After that they made drawings on the occasion of the company’s 10th anniversary under the guidance of artist Jānis Anmanis. The drawings were published on the website of Rīgas satiksme and every visitor could vote for the drawing he/she liked most.

The tradition of printing on e-tickets drawings made by children was established four years ago. In 2010 the vote was in favour of Vineta Siliņa, in 2011 the contest was won by Kristofers Krūmiņš and in 2012 by Katrīna Vasiļjeva.

The design of yellow e-tickets is changed twice a year. It is either a photo of Riga or a drawing by a child.
