During the summer, 25 city transport routes were adjusted in the capital. This was announced by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry. Maxim Liksutov.

“By order of Sergey Sobyanin, we continue to develop the city surface transport network. For the convenience of passengers, we are adjusting routes and launching new ones. During the summer season, modern electric buses began operating on 22 routes. Trips have become more comfortable and accessible for millions of residents and city guests,” added Maxim Liksutov.

Moscow is developing ground urban transport, ensuring comfort in travel for residents and guests of the metropolis. Over three summer months, the capital introduced a new route No. 985, which connected the residential complex “Skandinavia” in Kommunarka with the metro stations “Potapovo,” “Teply Stan,” and “Kornilovskaya.” Express routes Sh1, Sh2, Sh3 to Moscow City Oncology Hospital No. 62 in Skolkovo and No. 1549a to the Moscow Clinical Research Center “Hospital 52” in the settlement of Istra also appeared. In addition, 14 routes were opened as part of the “Moscow — Region” project in five urban districts of the nearest Moscow Region.
