The executive committee of Mykolaiv allowed the utility company to work on route №1 for another 2 months without a competition

On Wednesday, January 10, members of the executive committee of the Mykolaiv City Council appointed KP Mykolaivpastrans as a temporary carrier on city bus route №1 «Zavod Okean» — Ternivka.

NikVesti writes about it.

The deputy head of the transport complex Oleg Kuksa noted that the appointment of the carrier is due to ensuring uninterrupted transportation to the district far from the city center in the conditions of martial law.

KP Mykolaivpastrans is proposed to be appointed from January 22 until the holding of a new competition, for a period of up to 3 months.

Passenger transportation will be carried out according to the following traffic scheme:

• Zavodska Square, 1;
• Korabeliv Avenue;
• Bohoiavlenskyi Ave.;
• Tsentralnyi Ave.;
• str. Pushkinska;
• Avenue of Heroes of Ukraine;
• str. Malko-Tyrnivska;
• str. Sofiivska;
• Oleksandrivske highway;
• str. 116th Division;
• str. Volodymyr Stankо, 1.

We will remind that in Mykolaiv, a temporary carrier was also approved on bus route No. 17.

In addition, in June 2023, the executive committee again appointed Mykolaivpastrans as a temporary carrier for bus route No. 79. Temporary changes at the enterprise were explained by the lack of a sufficient number of drivers.

In March 2023, we reported that the residents of Korabelnyi district are forced to wait more than an hour for public transport and then ride an overcrowded bus to get home after work. After the majority of residents returned to Mykolaiv, the number of public transport is often insufficient. Remote areas suffer the most, especially during peak hours.

The management of the transport complex «solved the problem» with public transport in the Korabelnyi district: instead of increasing the number of vehicles, a more capacious bus was installed during work transportation.
