Kyiv plans to update public transportation fares: a single trip will cost 30 UAH, according to the press service of the Kyiv City State Administration (KCSA), which noted that a discount system will be in place for passengers who regularly use public transportation.
As reported on the KCSA’s Telegram channel on Monday, the cost of a single trip will depend on the number of trips purchased on the transit card. Thus, when purchasing 1–9 trips, the fare will be 30 UAH; 10–19 trips – 28.90 UAH; 20–29 trips – 27.80 UAH; 30–39 trips – 26.60 UAH; 40–49 trips – 25.50 UAH; 50 trips – 25 UAH.
Monthly passes are also available, with the cost of a single trip amounting to approximately 23.3–23.6 UAH. Discounted rates remain in place for students and schoolchildren: students will pay 50% of the monthly pass price; schoolchildren will ride for free during the school year and with a 75% discount in the summer.
Separately, there are plans to introduce a transfer ticket for 60 UAH, which will allow unlimited transfers between the metro and surface transit within 90 minutes.
The press service noted that fares in the capital have not been revised since 2018. The need to update fares is attributed to rising costs for electricity, fuel, labor, and maintenance of transportation infrastructure.
The new fares are scheduled to take effect on July 15, 2026, following the completion of regulatory procedures, as well as consultations with the public and labor unions.
As previously reported, starting January 1, 2022, Kyiv planned to raise public transit fares to 20 UAH, and to 12 UAH for holders of the Kyiv City Card.
In late 2021, Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko assured that public transportation fares would not increase until the end of the heating season.
In 2023, Kyiv city officials stated that they do not intend to raise public transportation fares until the end of the war.
In September 2025, Mayor Klitschko stated that despite the fact that public transportation in Kyiv is subsidized, the city is looking for ways to avoid raising fares.

Investments in the development of Georgia’s transport and logistics infrastructure for 2026-2031 will amount to $7 billion, the country’s Economy Minister Mariam Kvrivishvili said, speaking in Tashkent at the second forum of investors in the Trans-Caspian Transport Corridor.

In this regard, Georgia has committed to invest $7 billion in key transportation and logistics infrastructure by 2032,” Kvrivishvili said, quoted by the press service of the Economy Ministry.
