City increases number of buses and trolleybuses on routes. Route list enlarged.
Cutting a few routes might lead to the addition of others, as city officials ponder over proposed changes. The citizens brought these discussions to light, according to city hall.
The bus route No054 ("Riteil-ParkSunny - Blue Stones") could be axed since it mirrors route No54. Instead, it'll traverse along No87's path, starting from Riteil-Park in Sunny and ending at Bolshakov Street. Bus No87 won't make stops at Academician Landau anymore, with route No59 now taking its place.
