New Public Transport Routes
Due to infrastructure damage, Kyivpastrans has changed the public transport routes. In particular, due to an accident with the contact network, the movement of trams No. 15 and No. 22 has been suspended.
Buses No. 51, No. 63, and No. 115 will now operate on the following routes:
- from the “Lybidska” metro station to Pryvokzalna Street;
- from Kosmonavta Popovycha Street to Pryvokzalna Street;
- from Kontraktova Square to Pryvokzalna Street.
Bus No. 14T runs from Kontraktova Square to Vasylenka Street, after which further movement is closed.
Bus No. 72 travels along Kurenevska and Kyrylivska Streets, bypassing Syretska Street, and continues on its standard route.
Traffic on Air Force Avenue towards the airport remains closed, so buses No. 78 only operate up to the Ring Road.
Due to the closure of Chornovil Street, buses No. 75 turn around at the Ring Road.
