In the project “Active Citizen” has started voting, dedicated to the anniversary Moscow Central Circle (MCC).
City residents will answer what they like most about this type of transport. Among the options are travel speed, the opportunity to admire the capital from the window, and a convenient schedule. Muscovites will also share how many years they have been using the MCC and describe their impressions of their first trip. In addition, residents are invited to recall how much faster they became able to reach their destination after the MCC opened and to respond which views from the window during the rides impress them the most.
For the first time, passengers rode on the high-speed Lastochka electric trains and saw the capital from a new perspective on September 10, 2016. Over 10 years, the Moscow Central Circle (MCC) has become an important part of the city’s transportation system, connecting 34 districts, relieving congestion on metro lines, and creating convenient transfer hubs. In just the first half of 2026, it recorded over 75 million trips, and the panoramic views of Moscow from the train windows have turned everyday commutes into exciting journeys.
For those who do not use the MCC, a separate question is provided where citizens can share possible reasons. Among them are travel by other types of transport and the absence of the MCC on the route. In addition, participants in the voting can suggest their own answer option.
One of the questions is dedicated to the comfort on “Lastochka” trains. Active MCC users will appreciate specific options—from the presence of a climate control system and “quiet cars” to special places for bicycles and strollers.
The voting was prepared by the “Active Citizen” project in collaboration with the city By the Department of Transport and Road Traffic Infrastructure Development. Its results will help determine priorities in the development of the MCC and make trips even more comfortable. Users of the project with full or a standard user account on the mos.ru portal.
Participants receive points in the city loyalty program for correct answers “Million Prizes”. They can be used to obtain goods and services presented on the website’s showcase ag-vmeste.ru, or donate to charities and organizations.
