Operating Mode during Emergency Shutdown

Due to possible power outages ongoing since October 31, tram and trolleybus traffic may be partially restricted. In the event of the de-energization of tram networks No. 3 and No. 16, the city launches bus replacements on the routes Pavlo Kichkas – Diagonal – Peremogy – Siedova and Zaporizhstal – Southern Highway – Diagonal – Zaitseva – Soborny – Novytsky – Siedova.

If sections of routes No. 10, 12, 14, and 15 remain without power, bus No. 56 will only operate to Maidan Voli. They also plan to increase the number of vehicles on municipal bus routes.

The schedules for the movement of trams, trolleybuses, and buses are published on the website of the Zaporizhzhya Electric Transport Enterprise. The transport system operates under increased load, and routes are adapted to closed sections and technical work. The city council emphasizes that all changes are aimed at ensuring stable passenger transportation during repairs and possible power outages.
