In March, a new morning bus line will commence operation between Valga and Tartu, enhancing public transport options in the region. This initiative was announced by Hendrik Johannes Terras, the Minister of Rural Affairs and Agriculture, during a meeting with local municipal leaders. The service aims to cater to commuters and students traveling between the two cities.

Initially, this additional bus line will operate until the end of the school year, providing a reliable means for students to reach their educational institutions in Tartu. The introduction of the bus service comes in the wake of the recently inaugurated Tartu-Riga train line, which had previously offered a travel option for passengers from Valga to Tartu. The coordination of these transport lines reflects an effort to improve regional connectivity.

The new bus service is expected to alleviate some transport challenges faced by daily commuters and students, making travel more accessible and efficient. As public transport options expand, it may encourage more people to use these services, potentially impacting local traffic and contributing to a more sustainable transport system in the area.
