ArmInfo. Yerevan residents will now be able to pay for travel on public transport (buses, minibuses and trolleybuses) using bank cards (physical cards of Armenian banks). This was announced during a working meeting on December 2 by Yerevan Vice Mayor Suren Grigoryan, noting that the payment is made without a commission.
At the same time, he called on citizens to immediately notify the mayor's office in case of problems related to payments via bank cards in order to promptly resolve them. Then this model is planned to be applied in the metro as well.
At the same time, Grigoryan reported that 15 new trolleybuses will be put on the line starting today, and 171 new buses - no later than January 1, 2025.
