Transport Decree, snaps refund passengers for a 30-minute delay – TGCOM

– Hold on races canceled or delayed, to protect commuters and those using public transport. So it provides the draft of the decree on local public services. Among the possible innovations, the right to a refund of the tickets will be released after half an hour or after an hour if it widens the beam at the local level. The bus and subway passengers will then swipe the card at each race, a measure to curb too smart. They risk up to 200 euro fine.



Decree Transportation,  click the refund for a delay 30 minutes

The text is not the final one, it is still missing the “bollinatura”, but if the measure is confirmed it would be a novelty, since today in many realities subscribers or consumers purchasing fixed-term travel tickets are not to validate it every time. The measure would serve to generalize a visual check, introducing a deterrent evasion in the sector.

More powers and support for controllers – The local public transport companies to counter ‘evasion in the sector will also be able to rely on external parties “qualified as assessors agents”, which, within the limits of their service, purchase the “public official”. And ‘yet it is written in the dl draft consolidated text of the implementing Madia reform. The Interior Ministry will make available “agents and officers, who qualified as judicial police, according to a support to supervisors, agents’ program for periods of up to three years and cover the costs to be borne by making the request.

They can also be used “the surveys of video surveillance systems on board the vehicles and on the station platforms.” And recordings can be “evidence, in compliance with current legislation on personal data processing, to identify any offenders who refuse to supply personal information to supervisors, agents, even with possible transmission to the relevant forces of ‘ order”.

Codacons: “ridiculous size: upgrade services, compassionate transport” – A measure “ridiculous” that will have no effect. So Codacons rejects the draft decree on local public services, which provides for fines of up to € 200 for those who use public transport without paying. “Obviously we are opposed to any form of evasion and we believe that those of bus facilities and metro without tickets go punished – said the president Carlo Rienzi – but in the light of the sorry state of local public transport and the many hardships that beset daily users , would have been obvious to think of measures that enhance the service, and not to heavy punishments for passengers, already damaged by poor service, technical problems and constant strikes. Especially when you consider that there are public transport routes, such as the Roma-Lido in the capital, where the disruption and inconvenience are so frequent that users should be able to travel for free. “
