In support of free public transport for Lubin, Poland

lubin.pl : "Where can we get the money? Luke Ługowski, campaign coordinator admits that the question of the source of funding free public transport solutions are repeated like a mantra. - You have to make it clear that full funding of public transport does not take place from ticket sales. It's a myth! - he says. - Tickets cover about 20 to 40 percent of the budget carriers. Subsequent increases in their prices cause decline in use and loss of revenue - he adds.

Further arguments for free public include: reducing the number of private cars, which will reduce the number of traffic jams. This has, in turn, contribute to increase capacity and improve the ride comfort for those who need to drive.

- Roadways are in much better condition, so you do not need expensive repair as often. The air is cleaner. For residents, this means, in turn, increase mobility, especially for young people studying, working people seeking employment and those on low incomes. We are talking about helping household budgets and stopping the exclusion of the poorest - lists further advantages spokesman Kosela."
