Public Transport
Riga’s public transport system consists
of buses, trams and trolley
buses. They run daily from 05.30
until about 00.30 but some of the
routes stop their service as early as
22.30. Tickets may be purchased on
the public transport from the driver
or, on buses, from a “resident” ticket
monger (konduktore), costing 0.40 or
0.50Ls. Tickets have to be punched.
Travel passes are available from the
central post offi ce. The public transport
may seem quite complicated to
the foreign tourist as there are no
clear route schemes neither at the
stops, nor inside the transport... we
hope that things will get better.
