Malta 2nd in Greenpeace public transport ticket systems pricing

May 4 2023

Malta has been deemed as the second best in the first ever Greenpeace public transport ticketing systems ranking, which took into consideration 30 European countries.

Scoring full points in terms of its free service across the entire island, the capital city of the island also landed in top spot for ticketing simplicity, prices and social discounts.

This report on climate tickets defines them as ‘affordable, long term tickets that are valid on all means of public transport in a country or region.’

The idea is to help tackle the climate crisis by making transport affordable for all so that people can switch from private vehicles to alternative modes of transportation.

Malta scored 88 points out of 100, quoting the free public transport as well as the ferry between the 1 main islands as the main reason behind the ranking. Valletta, too, was ranked alongside Luxembourg City and Estonia’s capital Tallinn.

Malta was only outranked by Luxembourg, which registered 100 full points.
