Germany planning to offer FREE public transport

By Admin February 18, 2018

We all know that Germany has some of the biggest car and automobile manufacturers in the world, and yet it is also planning to take necessary steps to control pollution. In the second week of February, Germany's popular English News website - thelocal.de published an article stating that Germany is considering to offer FREE public transport in order to banish air pollution.

This article states, that the environment minister is considering the option of providing FREE public transport to reduce the number of private cars and also fighting the pollution is one of Germany's priority.

Similarly, last year there was another news stating that Germany is also planning to ban Gas and Diesel cars in the near future.

If this happens, then which places do you plan to visit with the ticket-less travel plans?
