These will allow passengers to save up to 60 percent on travel annually and enjoy free transfers across all Moscow public transport.

"Sergey Sobyanin approved plans for developing the Moscow-Moscow Region project routes for 2026. Together with the Moscow Region Government, we plan to integrate 54 routes in the western, northwestern, northern, and northeastern directions into the capital's transport system. We will launch the first seven of these routes in the spring. Passengers will be transported by new, large-class buses, including commuter buses. We received them under a contract for the supply of over 500 modern buses. Convenient and reliable transportation will connect metro stations near the Moscow Ring Road with major towns in the Moscow Region, including Krasnoznamensk and Vlasikha," said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry.

Development of communications between Moscow and the region

According to an agreement between the governments of Moscow and the Moscow region, more than 50 existing suburban routes in the western, northwestern, northern, and northeastern directions are planned to be included in the Moscow transport system by 2026.

By 2028, at least 30 percent of currently operating suburban ground public transport routes will be included in the capital's transport system.

These routes will implement Moscow transport standards that have already become familiar to city residents. These include convenient schedules, convenient and predictable bus intervals, modern rolling stock, and qualified personnel.

Over 500 modern buses of various capacity classes, including medium, large, and large commuter, have been purchased to operate these routes. They will operate both the planned routes and those launched last year.

In addition to improving travel comfort, the addition of new interregional routes will provide additional impetus to the development of transport infrastructure in the Moscow region, including the installation of modern bus shelters, dedicated bus lanes, the creation and renovation of existing transport hubs, and increased use of various modes of public transport for daily travel from the Moscow region to Moscow and back. The freed-up rolling stock of the regional carrier will be redirected to strengthen routes across the Moscow region to Moscow Central Diameters stations.

In accordance with the objectives of the national project Infrastructure for Life Moscow is placing significant emphasis on modernizing its social and public infrastructure, including increasing the number of convenient public transportation routes and upgrading its rolling stock. As part of the national project, the capital has also begun developing its Central Transportation Hub. It will become a unified transportation system with predictable commuter rail service for over 30 million residents in 11 Russian regions.
