Liksutov spoke about new suburban routes in Moscow

Moscow Transport buses have launched two new routes from metro stations to the nearest suburb. This was announced by Maxim Liksutov, Deputy Mayor of the capital for Transport and Industry.

So, route 1343 is already operating: Metro Belomorskaya — Novogorsk (Stadium). It replaced the suburban route 343. The traffic interval was almost halved: from 35 to 20 minutes during rush hours.

In addition, instead of route 434, route 1434 "Planernaya Metro station — Novogorsk (Stadium) — Eden residential complex" will appear. The traffic interval will be reduced from 20 to 15 minutes during rush hours.

The Department of Transport explained that the new routes received the number 1 at the beginning of the number — thanks to this, it will be possible to avoid duplication of numbers with existing urban routes. Also, with "thousandth" routes, passengers will immediately realize that buses are going to the region, the department noted.

"In accordance with the instructions of Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, we are developing a network of land transport routes. Thanks to this, even more passengers can comfortably and safely move around the city," Liksutov said.

Moscow transport fares apply on suburban routes. Payment is possible with a Troika card, including a virtual, bank or social card. You cannot pay for travel with the Strelka card. Deptrans is working on updating the tariff schedule for suburban routes.

According to Liksutov, Moscow Transport buses have replaced regional carriers as part of a project to transfer suburban routes. Buses have USB chargers, media panels, large route indicators, and an audio information system.
