[spanish]Finalmente se ha hecho realidad lo que apareció en los medios hace unos meses, pero que estaba sin concretar del todo. El autobús urbano será gratis para estudiantes de secundaria y universitarios durante todo el curso académico. Una gran noticia para quienes utilizamos el transporte público, pues el precio del abono con la “tarjeta escolar” era de 320€ para el curso. Los abonos bisemanales, mensuales y trimestrales tenían un precio superior al transporte de Madrid, y del billete sencillo mejor no hablamos .

Además tienen pensado poner periódicos gratuitos en los autobuses para que estemos al día.

Espero que esta medida sirva para que los más jóvenes se familiaricen con el transporte público en beneficio del medio ambiente.[/spanish]

[english]Finally we’ve got what was being said in the media some months (and was not confirmed until recently). The bus will be free for secondary school and university students. This is great news for those who use public transport, since the “school card” for the academic year cost €320. Prices for different cards (for two weeks, a month or three months) were higher than those in Madrid. Let’s leave single tickets aside . So this action is wonderful for those who use this service.

They’ve also planned to have free newspapers on the bus so we can stay up to date.

I hope this action will make younger people get familiar with public transport, which will be a better choice for the environment.[/english]

[icelandic]Það er frítt að nota strætó fyrir námsmenn! Þetta er mjög góð frétt því það var svo dýrt að taka strætó (í alvöru… ég held að þetta sé dýrara en í Madrid). Þeir vilja bjóða ókeypis fréttablöð svo við getum lesið í leiðinni.

Ég vona að ungir Íslendingar muni venjast því að taka strætó, því það er betra fyrir umhverfið.[/icelandic]
