Overview
- Mar del Plata’s bus network, which stopped Friday after drivers’ wages were not deposited, remains halted until salaries are credited, the UTA union said.
- Local operators in the city warned of a “terminal crisis,” citing a more than 65% gap between current and viable fares and delayed national payments that they say cover about 55% of discounted tickets.
- Santa Fe approved a new fare structure and will relaunch the 10% “boleto frecuente” discount for trips paid with a registered SUBE card, setting the frequent fare at ARS 1,900 and the full fare at ARS 2,111.11.
- In Buenos Aires City, metrodelegados will open turnstiles at Line B’s Federico Lacroze station on Monday from 7 to 8 a.m. to protest what they call illegal wage deductions; concessionaire Emova says it only docked pay for days not worked.
- Across the interior, fares are jumping and services are being pared back, with Gran Rosario’s interurban lines up more than 30% and firms in Chaco and Tucumán turning to suspensions and split pay after subsidy cuts and falling ridership.
