“Safety and quality in public transport is a key priority of the government,” said government spokesman Giannis Oikonomou, responding to SYRIZA President Alexis Tsipras.
As he pointed out, “we are one of the few countries that, during the pandemic, increased the fleet of MMM. We received 850 buses in traffic and today we have 1320, targeting 1500 in the first half of 2022. We already have 3800 routes per day more. We have secured the funding for the tender for the supply of new buses. In lines 2 and 3 of the Metro we increased the trains from 32 to 38, reduced the time distances and delivered 3 new stations. In the tram, we reopened the line to Syntagma, we restored the operation to Faliro, the operation of the tram in Piraeus started and we received 25 modern trains. Finally, we reduced the price of the ticket, which SYRIZA had increased, to 1.20 “.
“The government is producing tangible work, guided by the daily safety and quality of life of citizens, especially in the midst of a health crisis. “Mr. Tsipras continues the desperate and ineffective effort to find a field where his opposition speech will meet the truth, but it does not succeed”, concluded Mr. Economou.
