The Moscow authorities initiated the inspection of carriers on city bus routes. This today, February 19, said the Director of the Department of Transport Infrastructure KSCA Sergei Simonov, said Ukrinform. "Since February 14, we managed to check two carriers, but I think that within three weeks we will check all the carriers of the city of Kiev and report on the results of these checks," said Simonov. He noted that previously 22 checks of fixed-route taxis had been carried out, and contracts with four carriers had been terminated. At the same time, Simonov added that the city authorities annually update public transport.

"At the moment about 60% of routes in the capital operate in a taxi mode. On the recommendation of the World Bank, we want to make that only 30% remain in the taxi mode, this concerns the routes of the private sector. But we understand that this should be done through the acquisition of a new rolling stock, which we do and every year we increase the number of large buses and reduce the number of taxi routes, "he said.. Recall, Kiev route taxis on January 29 at the same time raised prices on 53 routes.
