Berlin-Brandenburg Public Transport Fares Set for 7.5% Hike in New Year

The proposed fare increase awaits final approval as the VBB board proceeds with a written decision process.

  • Single tickets in the Berlin AB area are expected to rise to 3.80 euros, up 30 cents from the current price.
  • The cost of a four-trip ticket is anticipated to increase by 80 cents, reaching 11.60 euros.
  • The VBB board's decision on the fare hike was delayed due to insufficient attendance at a recent meeting.
  • The fare adjustments consider the past 60 months' trends in living, electricity, and fuel costs.
  • Earlier this year, the VBB implemented a 6.7% average fare increase across its network.
