Public train and subway services in Majorca will be free of charge between 2 and 19 February, the region’s transport department announced yesterday.
There has been a series of changes to local public transport services and transport authorites feel it would be unfair to charge users before a trial period, to see how smooth services run.
Transport authorities have installed new ticket machines, access barriers and security cameras in different stations all over the island, and to avoid any unecessary chaos, queues or any other problems that might affect the users’ daily routine, a grace period would be the best solution for everyone.
By 19 February, and should the transport department be happy that all the new changes are running as expected, ticket fees will once again be applied.
