\"\"Chisinau, October 8, 2005 (Moldova.org) — Almost 2 thousand drivers of route minibuses have agreed to end their three-day strike for increasing the ticket fare. Drivers, but mostly minibus owners, were angered by the decision of the Chisinau City Council not to include in the agenda the increase of ticket fare from 2 to 3 Moldovan lei (equivalent of $0.16 and $0.24). After 3 days of idling, all the vehicles were back on Chisinau streets on Friday. <\/p>\n

In major Moldovan cities, private route minibuses were introduced some 10 years ago to compensate for inefficient bus and trolleybus public transport. <\/p>\n

A source from "drivers circles" told Infotag news agency that already on Wednesday, second day of the strike, many drivers were about to resume work, seeing how much suffering to citizens the strike brought.

On Thursday night, representatives of minibuses owners and drivers met with Chisinau acting Mayor Vasile Ursu and an agreement was reached to resume work. The sides also decided that the question of a higher fare rate shall not be tackled spontaneously any more, but in negotiations. <\/p>\n
