Brussels changes public transport services across city

To adapt to the crisis, Brussels' public transport company Brussels Intercommunal Transport Company (STIB) is increasing frequencies of routes serving hospitals and care facilities, as well as increasing services at peak commuting hours. Other non-essential lines are reducing frequencies or being interrupted in order to limit non-essential journeys and allow driving personnel to concentrate their efforts on meeting priority needs. In order to guarantee sufficient social distance, STIB is limiting the number of passengers inside the vehicles and encouraging passengers not to sit next to each other, respecting a 1.5 m safety distance. Moreover, on-board ticket sales and cash payments have been suspended to limit the spread of the virus.
