Under the agreement, Budapest passes will be valid on public transport in the entire area of the capital, while country and Pest County passes for state-owned public transport will be valid on the capital's BKK network.
The sides also agreed on a new system for allocating central budget support to the city's public transport.
As a result of the new agreement, the Municipality of Budapest will pay HUF 5.57 billion to MÁV as a settlement of the agglomeration cost compensation for 2022-2023.
Lázár announced earlier that public transport passes for the state-owned MÁV-Volán group would be streamlined from March 1.
