Good news for passengers on the interurban network of CACL, the Central Littoral Urban Community.
From January 2, 2025, new rates come into effect and they are decreasing. Information that many passengers discovered this morning at the SEMOP counter. “It’s good, it’s changed,” reacts Berry Chalotin, customer.
From now on, SEMOP offers a single ticket for 1.50 euros which allows you to make several journeys in one hour, instead of just one previously.
SEMOP also announces day tickets for 3 euros and weekly tickets for 12 euros, all connections combined. “Thus, customers will be able to adapt according to their transport habits, explains Dimitri Zénon, director of the customer center at SEMOP Agglo'bus. Pricing will be effective across the entire urban and peri-urban network.
This global policy is decided by the CACL, the Urban Community of the Center Littoral and deployed by the mobility service. The objective is to put all travelers in the urban community on the same footing.
“It is a subscription with a single cost whatever the line. The objective is to have tickets with unified prices and with a unit ticket at 1.50 euros whatever the municipality: Montsinnery, Roura or Cayenne”, explains Christelle Célestine, head of the mobility service at CACL.
The adult monthly subscription also sees its price drop by almost half, from 63 to 35 euros. “The objective is to retain people who already take the bus, but also to attract new ones,” recognizes Christelle Célestine, head of the mobility service at CACL.
The CACL also wants to fight against illegal taxis. In 2023, the agglomeration recorded 1,700,000 travelers. With this strategy, it hopes to multiply this figure by five, by the end of 2025.
