Zam Is Not Satisfied with Private Public Buses

The raise for transportation in Istanbul did not satisfy private public buses: the 2016 hike in IETT officially started today. However, the hike made was not liked by Private Public Buses ...
Private Public Bus Owners and Operators Chamber of Tradesmen found the public transport hike set at 7 percent by IMM. "Considering that the price of travel in European peer cities is 1 euro, it turns out that the current tariff is still insufficient today," President İsmail Yüksel said.
Here is the full description of Yüksel: Bus, tram, metro, tunnel, ferry, train passenger transportation fees determined by Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality are valid as of 31 January 2016: Full ticket has been increased to 2.30, student 1.15, and discounted 1.65 TL. With the regulation made, the rate of increase reflects approximately 7%.
However, in the last year, there has been an increase in operating and labor costs by approximately% 25. This shows that the arrangement is below the operating costs.
The last time to the urban passenger transport tariff was made on the date of June 2004 and below the inflation figures. The public tariffs for public transport have not changed since the 20 month.
Personnel expense increased by 25 percent
In addition, our personnel expenses increased by% 25 due to the increase in the minimum wage. In addition, the conversion of our vehicles by 100 with low base and new vehicles has increased our cost by% 25.
Considering that this is the 1 euro for all of this and the trip fee in the European precedent cities, the current tariff is still inadequate today and it is concluded that the public bus incurred the operation costs.
