Public transport developments in Hungary and Romania

Overview

Public transportation services in Hungary and parts of Romania are undergoing various logistical and technological updates. In Kaposvár, Hungary, a new bus schedule is scheduled for November to increase service frequency, supported by the acquisition of 42 electric buses and the introduction of midibus routes for narrow streets. Meanwhile, in Maros County, Romania, authorities are attempting to resolve transit gaps between Csejdi, Tófalva, and Marosvásárhely caused by the discontinuation of a previous route.

Digitalization efforts are also advancing in Hungary. In Budapest, the BudapestGO application has been updated to provide passengers with boarding advice to optimize transfers and accessibility. Additionally, the Okosjárat system is working to integrate rural bus services into Google Maps, a project already active in Orosháza with plans to expand to dozens of other municipalities.
