You would have thought they would have something better in place, and to have a different pass for each bus company is ridiculous, one pass should cover all, and would make the life of the Madeirans a whole lot easier… Oh wait, everything needs to be complicated….
As happened in the last two days at the Horários do Funchal social pass renewal points, also at Rodoeste, located on Rua do Esmeraldo, in the center of Funchal, the scenario seen in the photos occurs.
The situation is generating an unusual queue, coinciding with the fact that the last two days of the year are weekends, with this Friday being the last opportunity for passengers and users of the company Rodoeste – Transportadora Rodoviária da Madeira , which operates in the west of the island, renew their pass and purchase the free pass (over 65 years old and under 23).
As with Funchal Schedules, the Regional Government’s measure for 2024 also benefits users of the remaining bus companies in Madeira, as they can benefit from the intermunicipal regime.
