In the capital of Ukraine will return the fare in public transport, said the mayor of Kyiv Vitaliy Klitschko.
“We are already switching to paid travel in public transport,” Klitschko said on the air of the National Telethon on Tuesday.
At the same time, the mayor of the city did not specify when exactly the paid travel would resume, but noted that the price for it remains the same (UAH 8).
Klitschko explained the restoration of paid travel in public transport by the need to replenish the city budget.
“We understand that we now have a large amount of energy resources that we need, and electricity, and wages for our utilities, employees, and I can honestly say that the city will not pull, because the budget must be replenished,” the mayor said.
As reported, since February 24, due to the martial law associated with the military aggression of the Russian Federation, public transport in the capital has been free of charge.
