Advocacy victory: Here comes the student-priced annual ticket!
The implementation of a student-discounted annual ticket is a step towards making Tampere more student-friendly, and the budget proposal published today by Mayor Ilmari Nurminen includes the student-priced annual ticket! The Student Union of Tampere University and the Students’ Union of Tampere University of Applied Sciences have advocated a student-priced annual ticket for several years.
