Some routes are detouring, certain trams are not operating, while some buses have changed their routes. This was reported by the Dnipro City Council.
Public transport in Dnipro: which routes changed on July 13
From today, road workers have started repairing the tram tracks at the intersection of Bohdan Khmelnytskyi Avenue and Oleksandr Halchenko Passage. During the works, the movement of private and public transport has been organized to detour around the closed section.
Due to this repair, there have been no additional changes in the operation of buses and trolleybuses. At the same time, other temporary restrictions related to repair works continue to be in effect in the city.
Due to the repair of the water supply on Kryvorizka Street, traffic is closed on the section from Robocha Street to Metallurhiv Avenue. In this regard, the routes of buses No. 55, No. 75, and No. 156 have been changed, while routes No. 146A and No. 146B have been temporarily merged into one.
