Only in the metro from the entire public transport in Sofia will be able to travel with a paper ticket. This was decided by the municipal councilors at the session of the Sofia Municipal Council after they extended the validity of the paper transport document, BTV reported.

Initially, it could only be used until June 1, but the deadline was extended on the proposal of the Monitoring Committee of the new ticket system. The report is published on the website of the Sofia Municipal Council.

The one-time ticket in Sofia will continue to be sold at the ticket offices in the subway

In the summer of 2022, the Sofia Municipal Council adopted a new tariff policy to systematize and organize in a new way the transport documents in the public transport of Sofia. In public transport, paper tickets were last used until March and have already been completely replaced with electronic transport documents on the ticket system. The arguments of the Monitoring Committee are that many people use the paper ticket and removing it would make it difficult for citizens. Its purchase is done only at the ticket offices of the subway.

CGM reports that electronic transport documents for public transport in Sofia enjoy interest and their sale is increasing. This is especially true for the 30+ and 60+ tickets, which receive the most approval from Sofia residents and guests of Sofia.
