Page 1

Train fares in Valencia region are to increase by 16% in less than a year .The annual review is due to be completed by the end of the month and this is what is expected to be announced . There were rises in May and September last year which were 13% rises and once these prices have been reviewed they are expected to go up by another 3%. This 3% increase is based on the retail price index for November which stood at 2.9%.Once the new prices come into effect then a journey , one way between Alicante and Elche will rise from 2.15 euros to 2.70 euros and a one way journey between Alicante and Orihuela will increase from 3.70 to 4.20 euros . Travelling from Alicante to Valencia will now cost 20 euros one way .Those who use the trains regularly are far from happy and say that these increases are way above the rises in inflation ..The general cost of living has risen and wages have been reduced or frozen , so paying these increases becomes more and more difficult . One other blow to travellers is that the frequency of trains will also be changed in an effort to save money . Check Out The Full Indepth Details Here: Valencia News | Fare Rises
