The municipal Vilnius public transport company (VVT) will buy electric boats for 1.85 million euros from BIC, a company in Latvia. 

In August, the City Council of Vilnius decided to launch electric water transport service next year.

According to the VVT, the uniquely designed boats, which BIC will develop together with Dutch architects, will be able to carry 30 to 40 passengers at a time, and will be adapted for people with disabilities and cyclists.

LRT has been certified according to the Journalism Trust Initiative Programme
