Electric Transport Returns to Kyiv
Kyiv will resume electric public transport services on the city's right bank starting February 26. This restoration includes trolleybus, tram, and bus routes. According to the Kyiv City State Administration (KCSA), services on the left bank and cross-river routes will be reinstated at a later date, pending improvements to the energy grid and the absence of new infrastructure damage. This marks a significant step in restoring the capital's mobility, which has been severely impacted by the ongoing war.

To maintain transport connections on the left bank, the city administration plans to temporarily increase service on select bus routes. The restoration of electric transport on the left bank and for cross-river travel is only possible after further stabilization of the energy system and provided no new damage to infrastructure occurs. The resumption of these services is a critical part of rebuilding Kyiv's urban life, offering residents more reliable transportation options.
