Resident of Kiev registered a petition to cancel the stop of minibuses during the alarm. The petition can be signed on the website of the Kyiv City Council. The author is sure that such a decision “was made by people who have never used public transport and travel only by car”.

A day later, the petition gained half of the necessary votes..

As of August 4, almost 3,000 people left their signatures, while the required 6,000.

" Missiles fly all over Ukraine, regardless of the transport situation. The decision does nothing to improve the safety of citizens, who must seek shelter at the first stops where they had to get off during air raids.. At the same time, minibuses continue to run and carry passengers..

The same is true for taxis and private cars,"

At the same time, the author of the petition is sure, the decision of the Defense Council makes Kiev residents spend more on travel, because public transport loses at least some minimal benefits for people.. Therefore, they will be forced to change to cars, which leads to 5-10 times higher transport costs and will lead to the destruction of the city's transport system..

Recall that from August 1, in Kyiv, during alarms, all surface public transport should be stopped..

The Metro will still not carry out transportation by ground sections and close the work of open-type stations during the air raid.
