Strætó's schedule over Easter 2025

The bus stop „Háteigsskóli“ on the way to Eiðistorg on line 11 has been moved a few meters. This is due to roadwork at Háteigsvegur that will be ongoing for few days.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-19493" src="https://wp.straeto.is/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/hateigsskoli.jpg" alt="" width="628" height="498" srcset="https://wp.straeto.is/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/hateigsskoli.jpg 628w, https://wp.straeto.is/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/hateigsskoli-300x238.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" />

The bus stop by Háteigsskóli has been temporarily moved

During the period of February 19–28, there was a malfunction in Strætó&#8217;s payment processor, which resulted in some contactless payments not being processed. This meant that customers were not charged for all bus rides taken during this period when paying contactless.
Over the weekend, all transactions from this period were charged together in a single payment. For example, if a customer took four bus rides during this period, they may have been charged for 4 × single fares in one transaction.
The usual practice is that all contactless payments are processed together after midnight so that bus rides throughout the day can count towards the cap, if applicable.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Malfunction at the payment processor February 19-28

Strætó reception will be closed on Thursday 6th February from 9am-12pm, while a red weather alert is in effect. Strætó&#8217;s call service will be open from 7am-4:30pm as usual and customers can call 540 2700.
Disruptions are expected to continue in the countryside for bus service, but the weather may also affect routes within the capital area. We ask people to please check out alerts under <a href="https://www.straeto.is/en/route-planner/status-of-trips">&#8222;Route alerts&#8220;</a> for further information on trips.

Strætó reception closed 9am-12pm Thursday 6th February

Preparations have begun for the development of a priority lane for Strætó buses on Kringlumýrarbraut. The lane will be about 500m long. New bus stops are also planned near the intersection at Háaleitisbraut. Strætó, the Icelandic Road Administration (Vegagerðin), Betri samgöngur and Reykjavík city are working together on this project.
This priority lane will shorten the travel time by 4-5 minutes for passengers who are, for example, on their way to Borgartún or Hlemmur. 
Currently, Strætó does not drive there because traffic is too slow during rush hour and there are no bus stops on this route today. Currently, Strætó drives up Miklubraut, past Kringla then goes west along Háaleitisbraut and then turns north on Kringlumýrarbraut.
Now the project design and tender documents are being worked on, and hopefully the first part of the project will be tendered before the spring.
When construction begins, it will affect route 4, which will no longer go via Miklubraut and Háaleitisbraut, but will instead go straight on Kringlumýrabraut, and on that route, new stops will be put up for route 4 near the intersection at Háaleitisbraut.

Priority Lane for Strætó on Kringlumýrarbraut in preparation

A new price list will take effect on January 8, 2025. The increase amounts to 3.1% for single fares and 3.7% for period passes. The single fare will rise from 650 kr. to 670 kr., and the 30-day passes for students, youth, and seniors will increase from 5.400 kr. to 5.600 kr. The price of Klapp plastic cards remains unchanged at 1.000kr.
Strætó will discontinue the sale of day passes (24-hour and 72-hour) in the coming weeks, as capping now replaces these products. Unused 24-hour and 72-hour passes will not be invalidated.
The decision to change fares was made by the board of Strætó at its meeting on December 13, 2024, in line with the projected consumer price index increase for the year.
These fare changes apply to Strætó services in the capital area, while fares in the countryside remain unchanged. The new price list will take effect on Wednesday, January 8, 2025.

Starting January 1st, departures on route 94 in both directions will be accelerated by one hour to accommodate the changed flight schedule from Mýflug.  The new schedule takes effect Friday, January 3rd as there will be no flights on New Year&#8217;s Day.

Changes on route 94

At the beginning of 2025, Strætó plans to start charging a penalty fee to passengers who cannot show a valid fare during inspection. This is based on Act No. 28/2017 and rules No. 1021/2023. Children under 15 years of age will not be charged.
Ticket inspectors have been present on buses for many years, and this will now become one of their responsibilities. While it has always been permissible to remove passengers from buses if they have not paid the correct fare, the addition of a penalty fee for those who cannot present a valid fare during inspections will now be implemented. The fee is charged in online banking or paid on site as applicable.
The purpose of the penalty fee is to reduce fare evasion, including passengers traveling without a valid ticket or using the wrong fare category, and to ensure that all passengers contribute to the public transportation system.
The penalty fee is intended to promote fairness and equity in public transportation. By ensuring that all passengers pay the correct fare, we can maintain good service and prevent additional costs caused by fare evasion from affecting other passengers.
How much is the penalty fee?
General: 15.000 kr.
Young people: 7.500 kr.
Elderly: 7.500 kr.
Disabled people: 4.500 kr.
You can see more information about penalty fee <a href="https://www.straeto.is/en/user-information/penalty-fee">here.</a>

Plan to Introduce a Penalty Fee in the New Year

After the New Year, route 95 will stop driving entirely, but the bus has been running between Borgarfjörður and Egilsstaðir. The last day of driving is therefore December 30, 2024.

Route 95 will stop driving in the New Year

Now it is possible to pay contactless on board all buses in the capital area, but contactless payments have been in testing at Strætó. This new payment solution, which is part of the Klapp payment system, is now fully operational for customers.
It is possible to buy one single standard fare (one adult fare) with contactless payments.
Contactless payments are convenient when customers want to use Kapp – the new fare capping, you never pay more than 3 rides per day or 9 per week with an adult ticket. Simple and convenient, just remember to use the same payment method, the same payment card, the same Klapp card or the same Klappið (the app).
Contactless Payments:
<ul>
<li>1 card – 1 ticket (650kr.)</li>
<li>One standard single fare (adult fare)</li>
<li>Works for Visa, Mastercard and Europay</li>
<li>The ticket is valid for 75 min – so if you switch buses and scan your card again within those 75 minutes, you won’t be charged for a new ticket</li>
<li>Contactless payments are available within the Klappið payment system used by Strætó in the capital area</li>
</ul>
<a href="https://www.klappid.is/en/buy-tickets/cash-payment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Here</a> you can see information about contactless payments.

It has been decided to change the arrangement for all routes with pre-order services so that customers now call Hreyfill at 588 55 22 to book a trip. This applies to routes 22, 23, 25, 26, 27 and 29.
Pre-order service means customers have to book their trips 30 minutes in advance via phone 588 55 22 to order a trip. You can only pay for the fare by showing Klapp card, activated ticket in the Klapp app, Klapp ten or valid ticket.

Changed phone number for pre-order service

The night bus fare has been temporarily reduced to a single fare of 650 kr. It is also possible to pay contactless with debit and credit cards on board all night buses. Taking a night bus has never been easier than now.
See more information about the night bus <a href="https://www.straeto.is/en/route-planner/timetables/night-buses">here.</a>

Contactless payments are currently in final testing. This payment solution, which is part of the Klapp payment system, has been installed on all Strætó buses, though few adjustments are still being made. It is possible to pay a single adult fare contactless with debit and credit cards.
We remind customers with active period passes or single tickets in the app to have their QR code ready on the screen before boarding the bus, otherwise there is a possibility that the contactless payments will activate, and one general ticket will be charged on the card. When the phone is placed near the scanner, the QR code should take over the wallet.
We encourage people to reach out to <a href="mailto:straeto@straeto.is">straeto@straeto.is</a> if they have any feedback to share or to use <a href="https://www.straeto.is/en/user-information/suggestions">Strætó’s suggestions.</a>

Strætó has received the recognition of Jafnvægisvogin 2024. Jafnvægisvogin is a project carried out by FKA (Association of Businesswomen in Iceland). Jafnvægisvogin is intended to increase the gender balance in the top management of companies in Icelandic business. The goal is that by 2027, the gender ratio in executive boards of companies in Iceland will be at least 40/60.
&#8222;Equality is a choice, and we can be proud to belong to a company that demonstrates through action that equality is important,&#8220; says Sigurborg Þórarinsdóttir, director of HR and quality management at Strætó, who accepted the award on behalf of Strætó.

Kapp is a fare caping that limits how much you pay for the bus in one day or one week. You will never be charged for more than 3 rides per day or 9 rides per week when buying an adult ticket. This is ideal for those who don’t regularly use the bus, as it allows people to know in advance how much they will pay for the bus in a single day or week.
The best thing about the cap is its predictability – you always know the maximum you’ll pay for the day or the week.
There is nothing you need to do to activate the capping; it is always counting. You just need to remember to always use the same payment method, such as the same Klapp card or the same Klapp app.

DayCap: If you have activated 3 single adult tickets on the same day, you will travel for free for the rest of the day.
WeekCap: If you have activated 9 single adult tickets within one week, you will travel for free for the rest of the week.

The capping is valid within the Klapp payment system used by Strætó in the capital area and with the general single fare – the adult fare.
More information about capping can be found <a href="https://www.klappid.is/en/buy-tickets/kapp">here.</a>

On Monday, European Mobility Week begins, from September 16th to 22nd. 
The theme of the week is Shared Public Space.
Mobility week is a European awareness-raising campaign to improve transports in cities and towns. Since, 2002 cities and towns in Iceland have participated in this concerted effort with municipalities in Europe and Strætó has been involved since beginning.
