The Beasain City Council has initiated a new aid package to foster sustainable mobility, providing 50% discounts to Tribbu platform users for trips originating from or destined for the town.

Starting this week, users of the Tribbu platform making journeys to or from Beasain can benefit from a 50% bonus on their travel costs. This aid is capped at two euros per trip per person and will remain active until the allocated budget is exhausted.
With this initiative, the Beasain City Council aims to address mobility issues in the town's rural neighborhoods, where public transport connections do not always facilitate daily commutes to work or study centers. The primary goal is to reduce the number of cars circulating with only one person, thereby easing local traffic congestion and simultaneously decreasing polluting emissions.
Interested individuals must download the Tribbu application, available on the Play Store or App Store, and complete the registration. Once inside the application, it is essential to enter the code BEASAIN22N to link the account and ensure the discount is automatically applied to every trip that has Beasain as its starting or destination point.
