The fare increase that MEPE applied for in April from ARESEP (Autoridad Reguladora de los Servicios Públicos) is now coming into effect.

The rate between Limón and Puerto Viejo will go up from 1,510 colones to 1,815 colones.  MEPE routes between Limon and Bananito and San Andres will also go up.

    I am a retired expat and live in Pta Uva *close to Manzanillo and use MEPE frequently to get to town and to San Jose. I am very impressed with the skill and courtesy of the drivers that I have met. In a year and a half I have had only pleasurable journeys using MEPE.

    I just wish there were more scheduled trips. When I take the 8>30 am bus to town to use the internet or cash a check, I must wait until noon to return home. I also wish there was a round trip mini bus express to the Maxi Bodega in Limon so I could go gocery shopping there.
