The Ministry of Transport has recommended the suspension or postponement of the rate readjustment in interstate transportation from the surrounding region of Brasilia. It is up to the National Land Transportation Agency (ANTT) to analyze the request.
On Tuesday (18), ANTT approved a readjustment of 2.91% in the value of the bus that covers Brasilia’s route to the surroundings. The increase is valid at 0am this Sunday (23).
The Transport Folder responds to the request for governments of the Federal District and Goiás, who created an agreement to reduce the price of bus tickets from the surrounding area.
Thus, state governments propose to pay a subsidy to reduce the tariff and prevent high value from reaching passengers. They hope to fix the ticket at $ 8.
The expectation of the Federal District government is, along with the head of Goiás, to pay $ 67 million per year. The federal government will not be impacted with the expense.
