New Skånetrafiken manager: this is how we will recapture passengers

Skånetrafiken’s main task in 2021 will be to restore confidence in public transport.
This is what Skånetrafiken’s new manager, Maria Nyman, says, who sees reducing the spread of infection as a prerequisite for increasing travel.
– In addition, our passengers must be able to count on punctual trains and a robust railway. They should know that they are on time for work and school, he says.

Skånetrafiken has had since March got rid of half of his clients. Since last spring, the corona pandemic has spooked thousands of bus and train passengers. More and more people work from home. Others prefer to drive a car. Track work is underway along three of Skåne’s busiest train sections. It is not possible to buy a ticket on regional buses.
