Benevento: Mayor Mastella sent a letter to the top management of Italo Spa and the FS Group on the topic of ticket costs.
The mayor of Benevento Clemente Mastella sent a letter to the top management of Italo Spa and the FS Group on the topic of ticket costs for traveling on high-speed trains.
The letter reads: “I have learned, both from the press and from some reports I have received from my fellow citizens, that during the Easter holidays there would be significant increases in fares for traveling on high-speed railway trains. In particular, the increases in tickets would be more sustained precisely on the days in which travel, especially from the northern regions towards the South, is more frequent. The City of Benevento sees high-speed rail as a precious and essential tool to allow quick and easy travel to the metropolitan areas of the country and an important opportunity offered to young people who study away from home and to those who work far from Sannio to reunite with their families in occasion of traditional holidays. For this reason, I was worried when I read about tariff increases precisely on the occasion of Easter, because this would affect the costs borne by students and workers and would hinder the legitimate desire to return to their homeland and reunite with family members. In consideration of this, I hope that your groups can show the appropriate sensitivity towards the needs of those who study or work far from their homeland and promote, while maintaining the absolute respect that I feel for the freedom of economic initiative and the autonomy of business, travel plans that include sustainable expenses for all budgets and aimed at facilitating the desire to return to the cities of Southern Italy", is the conclusion of Mayor of Benevento.
