Russian occupiers destroyed almost all public transport and related infrastructure in the temporarily captured city of Mariupol, Donetsk region - about 90% cannot be restored. Mariupol City Council reports this on Telegram.

As noted, in order to restore the previous level of this infrastructure, it is necessary to allocate hundreds of millions and spend up to three years..

In particular, the Russians smashed almost all the vehicles purchased over the past five years.. They damaged 259 buses, trams and trolleybuses, and destroyed about 90% completely - the equipment will no longer be able to be restored..

At the same time, the occupiers are trying to repair the transport that remained more or less intact and take it to Donetsk.

In addition, the enemy destroyed more than 50 kilometers of the trolleybus and tram contact network, which is 95% of the total in Mariupol. According to the City Council, the restoration will take 2-3 years of active work, which will require millions of investments..

“In just five years, we have managed to build a modern transport model. We bought comfortable buses and trolleybuses, launched new routes. We have already begun repairing the depot, which was supposed to be the best in Ukraine. Mariupol residents finally got the European level of service in their hometown. The Russians cynically destroyed all this,” Mayor Vadim Boychenko said.

Also, according to him, the invaders, sending the surviving vehicles to Donetsk temporarily occupied by them, provide the population of Mariupol with obsolete buses.

“This is their “liberation”, based on the destruction and mockery of the inhabitants,” summed up the mayor.
