Such a decision has argued with fighting polluted air in Pristina, which becomes even more disturbing at the time of pandemic that increases the risk for those facing respiratory diseases.
This will cost us a portion of the budget, but we think it's worth it. A good side of Covid is masks that will protect us even more from masks. While the main appeal is of non-negotiable use of cars. He wrote Mr. Ahmeti, Periscope escorts.
He has made it known that this was the initiative of PDK assistedists who had even proposed that free public transportation be available for four months in a row.
Full status:
Free Public Transport to Pristina in December
Since December pollution begins to rise, with several causes. Each year we point out that there is nothing we can do for one part and that is the geographic location as well as the climate aspects of Pristina. But there are two other reasons why more particles are released and then made closer to the earth because of the climate.
One is coal heat, which we are working for in five years, and the entire Pristina will be locked in central heating, which is the only sustainable way of leaving the coal.
The rest is traffic.
Since we are now in the pandemic, the risk of respiratory disease is high.
Therefore, we have decided that the month of December all public transportation to Pristina will be free. This will cost us a portion of the budget, but we think it's worth it. A good side of Covid is masks that will protect us even more from masks. While the main appeal is of non-negotiable use of cars.
At the recent meeting of the Municipal Assembly, the assemblyists of the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) have proposed and passed the recommendation for free public transportation for the next four months. Despite the good proposal, such decisions that affect the budget cannot be taken without budget change. This year we can do it, but for 2021 we don't have an approved budget because the Republic Parliament hasn't decided yet. But even in the budget we sent it, it's not in advance. So after December, we will assess the new situation depending on the budget and the financial situation in general.
By then, we have free December. But with orders from the caravan.
