"Following Sergei Sobyanin's instructions, we are working with the Moscow Region Government to develop the Moscow Transport network of suburban routes. On December 20, we will launch two more routes to the nearest suburbs, replacing the regional carrier. The line will be operated by modern, Russian-made buses, equipped with everything necessary for comfortable and safe travel for all categories of passengers. The buses will run from the Belomorskaya and Skhodnenskaya metro stations to the Khimki and Dolgoprudny urban districts," said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry.

For example, the fare on bus #1342 is 63 to 72 rubles when paid with a Troika card, and 64 to 73 rubles when paid with a bank card. On bus #1472, the fare will be 63 to 120 rubles (with a Troika card) or 64 to 121 rubles (with a bank card).

The following will be available on both routes:

— travel using unlimited “Unified” passes for the “Suburban” zone for 30, 90 or 365 days;

— unlimited “Unified” season tickets for the “Suburban” zone for 30 and 90 days using the Muscovite card for students;

— free travel with the Muscovite card and the Moscow region resident card for privileged categories of citizens, similar to Moscow city routes;

— free travel on all adjacent routes in Moscow (between Moscow and the Moscow region) is also provided to privileged categories of citizens of the Moscow region, including individuals under 60 years of age with the right to free travel on regional routes.

Discounts for transfers to the metro and other routes are not available. The Strelka card will not work. For free transfers to other modes of Moscow transport, you must use the 30-, 90-, or 365-day "Unified" passes for the "Prigorod" zone.

You can purchase and top up your Troika card at Moscow Metro ticket offices and ticket vending machines. This can also be done online via the Moscow Metro or Moscow Transport mobile app. Remote top-ups must be activated at any validator on board the bus.

Moscow transport standards

By 2025, 25 existing commuter routes are planned to be integrated into the Moscow transport system, operating in the northwest and west directions. This was made possible thanks to an agreement between the governments of Moscow and the Moscow region.

City routes #1342 and #1472 will replace suburban routes #342 and #472. They will adopt Moscow public transportation standards. Schedules will be convenient and intervals predictable. Professional drivers will operate the buses.

Modern buses feature climate control, USB ports for charging devices, and media panels. Low-floor buses are suitable for transporting passengers in wheelchairs, bicycles, and strollers.

By 2028, the Moscow transport system plans to integrate at least 30 percent of existing suburban routes. This will make travel more comfortable and provide additional impetus to the development of transport infrastructure in the Moscow region, including the installation of modern bus shelters, dedicated bus lanes, the construction of new and the renovation of existing transport hubs, and increased use of various modes of public transport for daily travel between the Moscow region and Moscow.

In accordance with the objectives of the national project Infrastructure for Life Moscow is focusing on modernizing its social and public infrastructure, including increasing the number of convenient public transportation routes and upgrading its rolling stock.

Every six weeks, a participant in Moscow's weekend fairs sends a truckload of lumber—timber or sawn timber—to special military operations forces. This lumber is used to reinforce bunkers and engineer combat positions.

Farmer Alexey has been selling fruits and vegetables at weekend markets for several years. He brings produce from his farm in the Tambov region. Like other market participants, he wants not only to sell his harvest but also to contribute to the common cause. He believes that helping the soldiers is the duty of everyone on the home front.

"The guys come themselves and tell us what's most needed right now. We collect it, and they deliver it. We buy tools on request, like screwdrivers. We just need to help—everyone can do what they can," Alexey said.

Moscow fairs feature products from over 40 regions of Russia. Entrepreneurs receive free space. Each supplier guarantees the quality and freshness of their products, and specialists State Veterinary Service of the City of Moscow check the products before sending them to the shelves.

Firstly, the students see that we also participate in Olympiads, and it motivates them. It also gives them the opportunity to show that teachers are interested in more than just their own subject. I like that the tasks in the interdisciplinary Olympiad are varied and diverse. I often have to revisit areas of knowledge that seemed forgotten. As a computer science teacher, mathematics is, of course, my strong point. But knowledge of foreign languages, reading, and the ability to search for information are also important skills that need to be supported and developed," said Yulia Sigida, winner of the "Moscow Teacher" interdisciplinary Olympiad and computer science teacher at Beskudnikovo School.

I strive to instill in my students a desire to go beyond the subject they're studying, to make their lives more interesting and prepare them for unexpected turns in life. And I come here not to take up a place, but to have a little fun and learn something new," shared Roman Nazaryev, geography teacher at School No. 548 "Tsaritsyno."

The Foundation for Supporting Social Projects announces the start of enrollment in its crowdfunding school. Enrollment is free. The program is designed for small and medium-sized businesses, social entrepreneurs, and nonprofit organizations in Moscow who want to learn how to attract funding for their projects through crowdfunding. Participants will undergo intensive training led by leading experts in the crowdfunding market.

Crowdfunding is a modern model of collective financing that allows project creators to raise funds directly from a community of interested individuals. Initiators receive numerous small contributions through online platforms, offering non-financial rewards in exchange, such as early access to the product, exclusive versions, and more. This tool is becoming increasingly popular today: it provides independence from traditional investors and grants, creates a loyal community around the project, and serves as a powerful marketing tool. In a rapidly changing market, the ability to effectively run a crowdfunding campaign is becoming a critical skill for anyone creating new products, services, or proposing social initiatives.

All graduates of the school will receive a certificate of completion of the program or a certificate of advanced training in the established format upon presentation of the required documents. Participation in the program is free. You can register atschool website.

"Our goal isn't just to talk about crowdfunding, but to give entrepreneurs the tools they need to get their projects off the ground. Therefore, in our program, we emphasize practical approaches, working with a specific target audience, and creating real value for those willing to support the idea," noted Nikita Novosadov, Deputy Director of the Social Projects Support Fund.

A key feature of the program will be working with industry experts. Four video lessons were recorded specifically for the school by some of the leading market players: Alexey Chesnokov, CEO of Planeta.ru; Kirill Kosminsky, Executive Director of the Crowdfunding Association; Nikolay Solodovnikov, founder of the "More Than Money" community; and marketing strategist Yulia Orlova. Their experience will help participants avoid fatal mistakes and develop an effective strategy.

"Crowdfunding has long ceased to be a mechanism for 'simply raising funds.' For project creators, it is primarily a way to test the viability of an idea, find an initial audience, and find partners. Crowdfunding often becomes the starting point for developing a personal brand and accelerating a project. But success requires a proactive approach: regular updates, audience outreach, and high team engagement. The good news is that common mistakes related to expectations, communication, or psychological barriers can be avoided. With proper preparation, crowdfunding goes beyond simple financing and becomes a development tool," notes Kirill Kosminsky.

The 30 most developed projects selected following the training will receive additional support—three personalized consultations with a crowdfunding producer. These sessions will help refine the campaign, develop a motivating rewards system, and prepare it for a confident launch.

The development of a favorable environment for social business is carried out by Fund for the Support of Social ProjectsIt carries out comprehensive activities aimed at developing this sector—from educational and media projects to infrastructure development, the creation of the "Social Enterprise: More Than a Business" trademark, and efforts to improve legislation. All the foundation's programs and services are free and have federal coverage.

The fund was established by the Agency for Strategic Initiatives for the Promotion of New Projects (ASI) in 2017. In 2021, the Moscow Government, represented by Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Development.

Support for entrepreneurs is provided within the framework of the federal project “Small and Medium Entrepreneurship and Support for Individual Entrepreneurial Initiatives,” which is part of the national project "Efficient and competitive economy", as well as the Moscow Mayor's strategy for supporting Moscow entrepreneurship.

IN Moscow Drama Theater named after M.N. Ermolova the premiere of the play took place "____ in Rus' ____ is good" Based on Nikolai Nekrasov's poem, director Dmitry Mulkov and playwright Artem Kazyukanov's production transforms the classic work into a garage rock concert for modern workers, where the main road is replaced by the well-worn ruts of a workshop, guitars made from canisters replace the gusli, and the question "Who lives well in Rus'?" resonates as poignantly as it did a century and a half ago.

Dmitry Mulkov: "It's as if it was written specifically for rock."

— Dmitry, in your play, seven of Nekrasov's men become workers who play rock music in a garage. How did this idea come about?

"One day, I stumbled across a rock band on VKontakte with the amazing name "Tekhmashrecords." They're two workers from Vorkuta who write songs in their garage to their own lyrics—rock and even punk. I fell in love with their music and thought: these are just like Nekrasov's characters! I wanted to combine this energy with Nikolai Nekrasov's lyrics.

Initially, it was an experiment—to test the extent to which Nekrasov's poems could become genre music. It turned out they were written specifically for this purpose. I also acted as composer for the production: we rehearsed together and composed the music simultaneously.

— In the play, we see customized musical instruments. Did you make them yourself? Do they sound authentic?

"Yes, it's been a long-standing passion of mine. Our show features several guitars made from canisters—I made them myself. When the idea for the garage story came up, I already had one such guitar. We tried it out, tweaked it, and it worked. Then the passion grew: I sawed metal, remade a bass guitar. Together with the designer Igor Kanevsky, we found a solution for the performance space, and from there I designed the individual instruments."

They're all real, working instruments. Many of the actors had to relearn how to play. For example, our bassist, Oleg Filipchik, who plays Pakhom, had never played bass before; he's a guitarist, but he had to master the specifics of the instrument, especially such a unique one, on the spot.

— Why a garage and not a main road, like Nekrasov’s?

"I think it's directly related. The garage, where a philosophical debate takes place, and the road are one and the same. We have a well-worn track through the garage, and cars are constantly driving into it. Metaphorically, it all fits together. The industrial park garage is a modern highway, a meeting place for people."

Nekrasov's peasants were looking for a lucky man—a priest, a landowner, a tsar. Has the "list of candidates" changed for your modern heroes?

"We were stunned by one discovery. We were doing verbatim with a modern priest from the Leningrad region, and he recounted exactly the same things as Nekrasov's priest almost 200 years ago. A similar story unfolded after a conversation with a real government official. This was very important for us in terms of research. We spoke with modern prototypes, and the whole team reflected on what happiness is and what is necessary to live a free and joyful life in Rus'."

— Do you have a personal answer to the question of who lives well in Rus'?

"In Nekrasov, at the very end of the poem, this question becomes an affirmation, a prayer for everyone to live well, a hope that someday everyone will be happy and at ease. Nikolai Alekseevich doesn't put a period or a question mark in the title. So it is with us: having asked this question at the beginning, we ultimately come to the hope that someday things will be good. So there is no answer. But there is hope."

Artem Kazyukanov: "If the audience doesn't argue after the performance, it's not our performance."

— Artem, you almost completely reworked Nekrasov's poem into a modern play. How did you work with the language?

"A colossal amount of work was done. The songs were retained—the music was composed, but the lyrics were based almost verbatim on Nekrasov's work; they were completely original and familiar. But the main characters' parts were translated into modern language. From the language of poetry to the language of prose."

Initially, when we were dissecting Nekrasov's text, we studied the peculiarities of the peasant language of that era. Now, as we were creating a modern analogy, I was delighted to find interesting words and expressions in overheard conversations, which I later conveyed to the characters in our play. This profound work with language is one of the two most important aspects of this production for me.

— And the second aspect?

"An attempt to answer the question of who lives well in Rus'. I don't want to and can't give an answer because it's still oscillating around the median. And it's not a given that it will settle on a single position. If it does, it means we haven't nailed something down."

It's symbolic that Nekrasov didn't finish the poem. It left something unsaid—not in the sense that half the poem is missing, but in the sense that there's room for reflection. For me as a playwright, for Dmitry as a director, and, most importantly, for our audience.

I can say for sure: if after a performance by director Dmitry Mulkov and playwright Artem Kazyukanov, the audience leaves without arguing, then it wasn't our production. This dialogue, this debate, these questions are important to us.

Oleg Filipchik: "Time goes by, but the problems remain. It's so interesting!"

Oleg, Nekrasov literally describes your character Pakhom in one word: "old man." How did you develop the role?

"It's a curious thing. I love working with this company because our director is 25 years old and sees things completely differently. That's wonderful. The very fact that he's taking on Nekrasov's work, which today would require coercion to be read, even by schoolchildren, is already an act of courage. I have a feeling very few people even understand what this poem is about."

— What do you think it’s about?

"In short, people dreamed of revolution and fought for freedom. When serfdom was abolished, it suddenly became clear that things had actually gotten worse. The book is about that. It's about how revolutions and radical changes in the Russian Empire don't always produce immediate results."

And Nekrasov lamented this: it's bad for the landowners, and for the priests, and for the ministers—for everyone, because any upheaval for Russia is a disaster. Perhaps he didn't finish his poem because he had reached revelations that he, a lifelong revolutionary, was ashamed to voice. But the most remarkable thing is that time passes, and the problems remain. This is so interesting, so amusing, and it gives food for thought.

— Did you have to learn a new instrument for the role?

"Yes, I became the bass player in that rock band. Many of the guys had to relearn, or learn it for the first time. Danila Kazakov, who plays Luka, is a self-taught drummer. It was fun, albeit noisy: after a five-hour music rehearsal, you're sitting there with your ears ringing."

— What should the audience expect from the performance?

"I understand that many will be shocked by this garage, our singing. I'll say it right away: we scream songs like cats in March for the first 15 minutes. Don't worry, after that, everything will be fine, more or less classical theater."

You have to come with an open mind, understanding that this is food for thought. Mitya created these wonderful workers—steelworkers and metallurgists. I want to live in that atmosphere, closer to the earth.
