The new buses will begin service in Písek on December 13th, when the new timetables will also be implemented. Simultaneously, a new bus line system will be introduced, simplifying timetables and reducing the number of lines from eleven to six.
From mid-December, four 11-meter electric buses with a capacity of 86 people and one 8-meter electric bus with a capacity of 51 passengers will be available. The smaller bus will go on a line to the city center, where the Velké náměstí Square stop should be upgraded. Buses powered by natural gas have a seating capacity of 85 persons.
A minor alteration to the Písek public transportation system began on January 18, 2021, and was announced as the first stage of a larger upgrade. The second round of adjustments, which regulates more substantial operational flaws that were discovered and remarked on by passengers, will go into effect on February 15, 2021, and will fix the majority of the comments and concerns that developed in Písek's public transportation network. The original concept has been kept, however travel times between some stops have shifted. The most essential comment, which is the delay of connections in the public transportation network, has caused this shift. A adjustment in vehicle circulation was required, resulting in a modest shift in departure timings. Passenger demand was also connected to time shifts. We believe that these are the best periods for them.
Písek's new public transportation system has been in place for several weeks. Although it is impossible to draw meaningful conclusions in such a short period of time, based on passenger comments, observations, and control trips, various operational issues can be recognized. From Monday, January 18th, these will be withdrawn due to a slight change in the timetables. "While we did not receive a considerable amount of input from travelers, all of their remarks were captured, reviewed, and weighted in the database." As a result, a small-scale plan of progressive changes is developed. Minor changes will be implemented in accordance with the schedule; the first will be on January 18, followed by others in February, and the remaining adjustments, if necessary, will be planned only after a thorough evaluation, such as when changing schedules in June or December, "said the guarantor. mobility of organizational unit Smart Písek Patrik Horazdovsky.
