Pass to help ease cost of living crisis has been hailed as a success but is due to expire at the end of August
The German government is under pressure to extend the heavily subsidised monthly public transport pass it launched in June.
The “€9-ticket” project, which grants everyone living in or visiting Germany unlimited travel across the country on regional transport at a cost of just €9 (£7.60) a month, is due to expire at the end of August. It has two aims: to lure people out of their cars and help ease the cost of living crisis.
