Salvador's Mayor Bruno Reis stated that discussions regarding bus fare adjustments will be postponed until 2026. He clarified that any change would be a contractual adjustment based on inflation, not an arbitrary increase, and he will begin reviewing the matter next year. The current bus fare in Salvador is R$5.60, making it one of the highest in Brazil, and the mayor has ruled out a zero-fare system without federal support.
