    Short answer

    Yle reported that Lahden seudun liikenne began to charge bus passengers who use a rollator at the start of 2026. Carrying a bicycle or a large scooter on the bus also became chargeable. The change drew criticism from some users, who said it increases inequality. The exact fees are listed in LSL's price list and terms.

    Why

    1. Yle reported the rollator fee from the start of 2026.

    3. LSL's terms from 1 June 2026 cover all Waltti ticket products.

    Details

    This is a local Lahti rule. In the Helsinki region, HSL has its own rules for prams, bikes and mobility aids.

    What may differ

    Yle reported that the same reform also brought one fare zone for the whole region from June 2026.

    Mobility aids always travel free on Finnish buses.

    What actually happens

    Rules differ by region. Lahti charges for rollators since 2026.
