Frequently asked questions

In order for us to be able to increase sustainable travel in Västra Götaland. The old borders have become an invisible and unnecessary obstacle in people's everyday lives. It should be easy to choose public transport. As of November 4, 2020, there will be fewer tickets, fewer check-ins and check-outs, more uniform prices and larger zones to travel in.

In the new simpler ticket range, all prices shall be based on the new zones. The range of tickets and prices should also be uniform throughout the region, which has not been the case until now. This means that some special tickets disappear, but it also makes the offer more equal. As equal as possible for everyone, throughout the region.

It will now be more uniform prices, it should cost the same no matter which zone you are traveling in. An important principle in developing the new fares has been to start from the current price level, especially in the case of tickets that you travel on often and regularly, period tickets. This has been important even if it means a higher price for some. For many travellers, the price difference will be marginal. The price will be lower for many.

No, prices will not be raised again in January 2021.

When 70 zones become three, many boundaries disappear in public transport. This also means that many stops that previously belonged to two zones will now only belong to one. The fact that a larger number of stops are located within an area on the other side of the zone boundary is no longer the reason for giving a stop to double zone. However, a small number of stops will also be in two zones in the new zone structure. For example, when a line runs the entire distance in one zone but where the final stop is in another zone. The new limits have been decided by the Public Transport Board and are drawn to be as good as possible for as many people as possible.

The borders follow the municipal boundaries and it has been decided that no municipality should be divided with a border. This is because the change and no new limits are created. You should also be able to travel by ticket for a zone within a municipality. The fact that no more municipalities can be included in Zone A is due to the fact that there would have been far too much price impact for everyone in the whole region. The goal has been to balance prices for the entire Västra Götaland region but also to keep the price down for travelling in the same municipality.
