Javni Prijevoz Hran (JPZH) is the authority responsible for public transit in the Ardalian capital of Hran, and parts of the surrounding Hran County that make up the metropolitan area. It is one of the municipal companies controlled by Hran Holding. JPZH operates an extensive bus system, 20 tram lines, a gondola lift, and funicular line connecting the upper and lower portions of the historic city center.

Services

Bus

TZAH currently runs 230 bus routes, providing services not only to the city of Hran, but also to other municipalities within the metropolitian area. Bus service frequencies vary depending on the number of passengers on a certain line - some routes have 5 minute intervals, others 15, or even 60 minute-intervals, and some only in peak times. Physical (paper) timetables are only given for the first and last stops, but online (www.tzah.ar) riders can see timetables for every stop on every line. Buses generally serve as feed for the tram system. TZAH, in cooperation with the airport, operate an express service three times an hour.

The bus fleet is made up of nearly 1100 buses, consisting primarily of low-floor buses painted red. Many of the buses in operation are articulated. Hran's road reconstruction program of the late 2000's (affecting 50% of the city's main roads) also made provisions for separated bus lanes and transit prioritization at intersections to help further reduce travel time of buses.

Rail

The first trame line was opened in April 1891, setting off a vital part of Hran's mass transit system. Hran today features an extensive narrow-gauge tram network of 23 lines transporting over 650,000 passengers per day. During the day every line runs on average every 5-10 minutes and between 15 to 20 minutes at night. Trams share roadway space in the historic city center but have separated right of way on major roadways throughout the remainder of the urban area. All trams in service are open-gangway.

The underground railway network consists of three lines, all built in the 1960's and early 1970's at the height of Frenlo Letzek's dictatorship with the aid of Loslakian financial and technical support. M1 (green) and M3 (blue) runs east-west while M2 (colored red) runs mostly north–south. All of the stations are adorned with patriotic mozaics and lavish lighting installations. Both the Hran City Council and the Darvas Government are currently planning the expansion of the metro system with an additional line.

All VZA services within the Hran District can be used at no additional cost beyond TZHR's tariff, but those traveling beyond must purchase a supplemental ticket.

Fares

TZHR uses an integrated fare model which allows riders to access multiple forms of transit using a single fare product. All services use a proof of payment model without faregates using validators installed at the front and middle sections of buses and trams or at the foot of the esclators at metro stations. VZA services within the Hran District can be accessed at no additional cost by purchasing an unlimited monthly or annual pass.

Fares are time-based and are collected using either RIGO, the operator's smart card, or an indivdual's own contactless-enabled bank card. Value can be added to RIGO cards at vending machines at all metro stations, major bus and tram stops, TZHR sales points, at state tobacco shops, tourist information centers, various newspaper agents, via SMS and the TZHR mobile app, but are not sold directly on buses or trams. Individuals using their own bankcards, the fare collection system will monitor trip usage throughout the day and deduct the amount owed at the beginning of the next day.

Personalized RIGO cards can be obtained for concessionary travel products (i.e. senior, veteran, disabled, student, reduced-fare, and free travel) or those who want unlimited monthly or annual passes.

If caught riding without a valid fare, a penalty of 500 Litas applies. Penalties are administered and collected by TZHR and do not fall under the remit of criminal law.
