📋 Tender Overview
In the ten months of 2025, 18 million passengers used the services of train passenger carrier Vivi - this is 1.7 million or 11% more than in the corresponding period last year, when 16.3 million passengers were transported. At the same time, train accuracy - an indicator that reflects the execution of journeys according to the timetable - was 98.6% during this period, maintaining Vivis position among the most accurate train passenger carriers in Europe. In October, the number of passengers continued to increase on the electrified railway lines where the new Vivi electric trains run. In ten months, the fastest increase in passengers, compared to the corresponding period of 2024, was in the direction of Skulte, where it increased by 15%, followed by the direction of Jelgava and Aizkraukle with 11%. In the ten months of this year, the most popular line, despite the extensive modernization works of VAS Latvijas dzelzcels electrified network, is still Riga-Tukums with 6.5 million passengers, which is 10% more than in 2024. Positive dynamics can also be observed in the non-electrified railway lines during the ten-month period - the number of passengers in the direction of Sigulda increased by 14%, and in the direction of Daugavpils - by 8%. The number of passengers on the Lugazi-Valga route has more than doubled, confirming the growing interest of the population in convenient international train traffic in the Baltic States. In October, more than 2,900 Riga single tickets were also sold, which allows you to save one euro on each trip, if you use both the services of the train passenger carrier Vivi and the transport of Rigas satiksme. More than half of them were bought by passengers on the Riga-Tukums route, 21% of tickets were sold on the Riga-Skulte route, 17% on the Riga-Jelgava route and 11% on the Riga-Aizkraukle route. Modernization of passenger transport infrastructure is currently underway - VAS Latvijas dzelzcels is rebuilding passenger platforms, ensuring more convenient and safer access to trains.
