This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow in the Moscow Government for transport and industry issues. Maxim Liksutov.
“Together with the Government of the Moscow Region, we are expanding the network of suburban routes. Within the framework of the ‘Moscow — Region’ project, we are launching another route to Mytishchi.

In total, seven routes of the project are already operating in this urban district, as well as the pilot suburban route No. 1333, on which electric buses run,” said Maksim Liksutov.
Fixed rate
Travel on the new route No. 1303 is paid at a fixed fare — map It is only necessary to tap when entering. The fare from the Altufyevo metro station to Veshi is 71 rubles with the “Troika” card and 76 rubles with a bank card.
Unlimited “Unified” suburban zone passes valid for 30, 90, and 365 days are available on the route. With them, trips become more cost-effective (up to 60 percent annually), and free transfers are allowed on all city transport in Moscow. Discounted passes for 30 and 90 days are provided for students with a Moscow resident card. Additionally, for privileged categories of citizens holding a Moscow resident card or a Moscow region resident card, travel is free, similar to the city routes in the capital.
Preferential categories of citizens, as well as residents of the Moscow region under 60 years old who have the right to free travel on regional routes, can use this benefit on all connecting routes between Moscow and the Moscow region.
