BKK now has until March 18, 2023 to decide on calling down the option to buy the trams at 2014 prices. The option does not stipulate tram type, allowing BKK to buy long or short trams.
The municipal council of Budapest voted unanimously in October to call down an option for 20 trams, with a value of around HUF 17 billion, included in the contract the city's public transport company signed with CAF in 2014.
Producing journalism that is worthy of the name is a costly business. For over 30 years, the publishers, editors and reporters of the Budapest Business Journal have striven to bring you business news that works, information that you can trust, that is factual, accurate and presented without fear or favor.Newspaper organizations across the globe have struggled to find a business model that allows them to continue to excel, without compromising their ability to perform. Most recently, some have experimented with the idea of involving their most important stakeholders, their readers.
