This annual initiative aims to draw attention to sustainable mobility alternatives and encourage residents to reduce pollution on the road for at least one day. For the third year in a row contributing to this goal, “LTG Link” offers train tickets at a symbolic price.

“Car-Free Day is a great opportunity to change usual travel habits at least for a short time and try more sustainable alternatives. I believe that the more people choose public transport for daily or leisure trips, the more comfortable and sustainable transport system we create together,” says Kristina Meidė, head of “LTG Link”.
For tickets for local routes on September 22, purchased online and via the mobile app, “LTG Link” offers a 90% discount. For example, for one adult traveling the Vilnius–Kaunas route, a second-class ticket will cost from 0.56 Eur, and traveling from Vilnius to Klaipėda – from 2.68 Eur.

Last year, nearly 32,000 passengers chose to travel by train on International Car-Free Day.
The discount applied on International Car-Free Day is one of two annual initiatives when “LTG Link” passengers are given the opportunity to travel at a symbolic price. The same 90% discount is traditionally applied on May 30, when Train Travelers’ Day is celebrated. Today, the “Train Travelers’ Club” unites more than 170,000 members who contribute to more sustainable mobility in Lithuania by exchanging their car for the train.
