In the capital, the efficiency of two dedicated lane sections located in the Nizhegorodsky and Novo-Peredelkino districts has been increased. This will improve surface transport flow and make city trips faster and safer, said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry. Maxim Liksutov.
“On the instructions of Sergey Sobyanin, we continue to work on improving traffic flow in the capital. Specialists
Department of Transport and Road Transport Infrastructure Development of the City of Moscow, the transport organizer and the Traffic Management Center analyze the operation of dedicated lanes and adjust the markings on busy sections. Even targeted changes allow buses and electric buses to pass through congested road sections two to four times faster, as well as improve the comfort of trips for passengers,
On Borovskoye Highway before Sholokhov Street towards the city center, a 150-meter gap in the dedicated lane was removed. Previously, drivers merged here from the service road onto the main lane and filled the gap, causing traffic jams for surface transport. Now buses pass this section without delays, and passengers can get to their desired stops faster.
Under the overpass on Nizhny Novgorod Street Moscow High-Speed Diameter The (MSD) improved traffic flow in both directions. Towards the center, a 100-meter gap in the dedicated lane was removed and an additional protected exit from the MSD was created. As a result, the travel time for ground transport was halved, and the exit of vehicles from the highway became faster and safer. Additionally, two sections of the dedicated lane were connected near Nizhnyaya Khokhlovka Street in the direction of the region. Thanks to this, buses travel without unnecessary lane changes, and the travel time for the section was reduced by 25 percent.
Dedicated lanes remain a reliable tool for creating a comfortable environment for ground urban transport movement. They reduce travel time for buses and electric buses by an average of two to four times and decrease the risk of road traffic accidents by approximately 25 percent. Thanks to the priority given to urban transport, passengers wait less at stops, and trips become safer. Additionally, dedicated lanes help optimize the operation of buses and electric buses and effectively allocate rolling stock among routes.
