As Poslovni Dnevnik writes on the 26th of October, 2020, ZET has reported that they will re-organise the way things are run in regard to Zagreb bus and tram services with All Saints Day in mind. They stated that in this specific epidemiological situation, they are fully prepared to organise transportation through the days before, as well as on the actual days of the feast of All Saints Dat and on All Souls’ Day.
“As of Friday, October the 23rd, the traffic situation on the lines whose routes usually pass by larger city cemeteries has been being monitored, and if necessary, additional transport capacities will be included in operation,” they say from ZET.
The special regulation of public transport for the Zagreb bus and tram services will be in force on Saturday and Sunday (October the 31st and November the 1st), when other bus lines will be established on which transport will be free.
TRAM TRAFFIC
On All Saints’ Day, which falls on Sunday, November the 1st, the Sunday tram schedule will apply in terms of tram traffic, but a larger number of trams will run on lines 4, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 14 and 17 compared to the usual Sunday schedule. In order to facilitate the transfer of passengers from the tram to the bus lines of the Kaptol terminal, depending on the number of passengers, an additional tram stop will be established in Ilica, next to Ban Josip Jelacic Square. On Saturday, October the 31st, tram traffic will run according to Saturday’s schedule, but line 8 will also be in operation.
BUS TRAFFIC
When it comes to Zagreb bus services to the city’s cemeteries, and depending on the influx and amount of people, ZET will include additional buses which will run on regular lines.
