Riga minibus operator and Lithuania's Transrevis wins Vilnius public transport contract
The winner of the second part of the tender, for large
buses, is to be announced later.
"This tender is only part of a public transport
upgrading strategy that we will continue to implement," Vilnius Mayor Remigijus Simasius said in a press
release on Tuesday.
"The terms and conditions of the tender limit the age
of vehicles to one year and require that they be equipped with air
conditioners, passenger counting systems and video surveillance cameras, and be
comfortable for the disabled and parents with strollers," he said.
Under the terms and conditions of the tender, which was
launched by the local authority last April, RMS
and Transrevis are to supply 52
minibuses and use them to operate selected suburban routes.
Aurelija Dermante,
head of marketing and communications at the Vilnius local authority, told BNS
that the winner of the second contract would be announced later.
