Situation with electric transport in Kyiv
In Kyiv, due to enemy shelling, the movement of surface electric transport on the Right Bank has been temporarily suspended. Due to the difficult situation in the energy system, all trams and trolleybuses stopped running, significantly complicating the movement of the capital's residents.
To ensure transportation connections during the suspension of electric transport, KP 'Kyivpastrans' organized bus services on 45 routes. Dozens of duplicate bus routes have been launched, allowing Kyiv residents to experience less inconvenience when moving around the city during this difficult time.

Arranging bus services is an important measure to minimize the negative consequences for residents and ensure their mobility in emergency conditions. The restoration of electric transport movement will depend on the stabilization of the energy system, highlighting the importance of energy security in times of conflict.
