All vehicles operating within the Burgas public transport network are equipped with readers that validate the trip when a passenger taps their contactless bank card against them—in the same way they currently validate using Burgasbus-issued plastic cards or a QR code generated on a smartphone screen. Passengers may also use other smart devices, such as a phone or a smartwatch. The readers are located within the validation units opposite the bus’s second door. Validation via bank card is equivalent to the single-trip ticket that passengers can purchase on board. The cost of a single trip paid by bank card is 1.50 BGN (0.77 EUR). Validation occurs automatically at the moment of purchase. Ticket inspections are carried out using new devices issued to conductors and ticket inspectors. The bank card validation system fully complies with data protection requirements for cardholders. You can find more information at the following link: https://transport.burgasbus.info/emv

Note: After January 1, 2026, the price of a single trip using a bank card will be 0.80 EUR.

The new functionality is available in the “Transport Burgas” mobile application, in the “Tickets” section, from where the user can select the product he wishes to purchase. The application makes it possible to load both single e-tickets and packages of 50 and 30 trips. Payment is made by bank card, through an external secure and certified (PCI) service. The application generates a QR code, through which the validation takes place on the buses, and the electronic ticket gives the right to transfer within 45 minutes. Registration in “Transport Burgas” is done via Email, AppleID, Google or Facebook account.

Through the “Transport Burgas” application, users can receive real-time information about bus movements and the exact time when the bus will be at the nearest stop, as well as create routes for traveling by public transport.

In addition to the regular course at 10:35 p.m. from Banevo, travelers will be able to go home with special buses, with departure times from the stop in Mineralni Bani as follows:

29/07/2023, Saturday

– 11:10 p.m

30/07/2023, Sunday

The times of the last courses of lines Б11 – 23:15 from Izgrev Terminal and Meden Rudnik Terminal and Б12 – 23:10 from Slaveykov Terminal and Meden Rudnik Terminal are also changing.

In this way, residents and guests of the city of Burgas will have the opportunity to visit the events included in the rich cultural program of the Municipality of Burgas and to use public transport to get around after the events.

We use the opportunity to remind that a night line  also operates in our city, which provides transport service to passengers every night between 11:30 p.m. and 04:00 a.m.

We recommend all our customers to use the mobile application https://transport.burgasbus.info/, from where the schedule of public transport can be monitored in real time.

Line 17A will run every Saturday and Sunday during the summer season along the route: “Meden Rudnik” terminal, “Vastanicheska” St., “Zahari Stoyanov” blvd., “G. Al. Kodjakafaliyata” Blvd. , “Petrova Niva” St., Daga St., “Apostol Voivoda” St., “Georgi Popayanov” St., “Zahari Stoyanov” Blvd., Kraimorie quarter.

There are five courses per day on Saturdays and Sundays, while the schedule of line 17, which serves the Kraimorie quarter, is also preserved.

Departure times from “Meden Rudnik” Terminal are: 08:30; 09:30; 10:30 a.m.; 14:00; 3:00 p.m., and from Kraimorie quarter – 9:00 a.m.; 10:00; 11:00 a.m.; 14:30; 3:30 p.m.

The route of the seasonal line was created at the suggestion of residents of the “Meden Rudnik” complex and provides easier access to the beach of the “Kraimorie” district, and also reduces traffic on part of the route to the Southern Black Sea.

Asphalting requires the introduction of temporary restrictions on the movement of vehicles in the section from “Konstantin Velichkov” St. to the intersection with “Dimitar Dimov” St., and this will lead to changes in the lines of urban and intercity transport, whose route passes through this section of the city.

For this reason, from May 8 (Monday), buses No. 11, No. 12 and Burgas – Pomorie will travel as follows:

Line No. 11 – along the route to “Nikola Petkov” Blvd. – “Stefan Stambolov” Blvd. – “Demokratsia” Blvd. – continues along the route;
