📋 Tender Overview
The Vice Ministry of Transportation launched a universal intercompany transfer scheme that allows users to combine up to three buses by paying only the first fare, within a window of 120 minutes and up to two times a day. The measure, initially enabled between the lines of Magno S.A. and San Isidro S.R.L., seeks to facilitate daily mobility and directly reduce citizens spending. Today we are taking a concrete step to alleviate the users out-of-pocket expenses. We want to explain what this benefit means for people: when you are on your way to work and you need to make a connection, the next bus is free. And if you have to connect twice, you only pay for the first trip, the second and third are free. This is thinking about the citizen and improving the quality of the service, said the Vice Minister of Transportation, Econ. Emiliano R. Fernandez. Along the same lines, he announced that this is the first step towards a mandatory universal transfer within the framework of the public transportation reform. We want anyone to be able to make their connection at any point and at any time. That is what we are looking for with the reform, a more economical, predictable system designed for the user, he remarked. Savings and more travel options The impact of transfer is especially noticeable in the daily trips of those who depend on various combinations to reach their destination, since a transfer that usually represents around G. 530,000 per month can be reduced to about G. 176,000 when this benefit is used, generating an approximate saving of G. 350,000 in the monthly budget. The system is applied without restrictions on time, direction of travel or exchange point. Currently the services of San Isidro S.R.L. are enabled. on the itineraries of line 85 Ypane-IPS, the variants of line 51 (Highway, Caacupemi and Identifications) and the branches of line 48 through Artigas-Ypati, Artigas-Veracruz and Makai. On the part of Magno S.A., lines 29 through Anahi and 12 in their different variants (Circular CIE, Molino, IPVU, Florida, Sinalco and Integracion Molino) are integrated, along with the branches of line 43 that reach areas such as Km 26 Toledo, Cnia. 8 and 9, Campo Verde, Km 23 Villa and Toledo Canada. While the evaluation of results progresses, the Vice Ministry of Transportation will continue to monitor the behavior of the system to progressively expand the benefits and continue strengthening mobility in the metropolitan area.
