Krasnodar The mayor of Krasnodar congratulated workers of the automotive and urban passenger transport industry on their professional holiday.

— These specialists help city residents get to work, school, and home. They are always there when we are in a hurry for errands and when we return to our families after a difficult workday. Dear drivers, conductors, repair technicians, dispatchers, logisticians, thank you for your daily work. Movement is life! And you ensure the movement of the Kuban capital on weekdays, weekends, and holidays, early in the morning and late in the evening, — wrote the head of the city.

Last year, public transport in Krasnodar carried 176 million passengers, and this number continues to grow. Together with transport workers, the city administration is actively developing the public transport network: new tram lines, roads, and interchanges are being built, additional bus routes are being launched, and modern rolling stock is being purchased.

— All so that important city facilities for residents are even closer. I wish all workers in public and automotive transport good health, family well-being, stable and accident-free work! — added the mayor.
