Three new bus routes will connect the capital with the surrounding Moscow region. Starting September 20, buses #1383, 1873a, and 1971 will begin running from the Planernaya and Skhodnenskaya metro stations to Khimki.

"Following Sergei Sobyanin's instructions, we plan to integrate at least 30 percent of existing interregional bus routes into the Moscow transport system by 2028. On September 20, we will launch three new routes connecting the Khimki urban district with the Planernaya and Skhodnenskaya metro stations. Twenty-six modern Russian-made buses will operate on weekdays. This will improve the comfort of trips to the metro and reduce travel time for passengers," said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry.

Maxim Liksutov.

One of the main advantages is that residents of the region will be able to make advantageous trips on Moscow transport using single passes for 30, 90 and 365 days of the "Suburban" zone. They include transfers between ground transport, the metro, the Moscow Central Circle and the Moscow Central Diameters. There are also unlimited trips on regular river electric transport. In addition, with the "Unified" pass, you can ride bicycles and electric scooters of the city rental service "Velobike" for free. Each free trip lasts up to 30 minutes, and their number depends on the pass category:

— for 30 days — 60 free bike rides;

— for 90 days — 180 free bike rides;

— for 365 days — 390 free bike rides.

Additionally, the annual subscription can be paused for 14 days in the app. Moscow MetroThis is convenient for vacation travel or, for example, in case of sick leave. Two weeks will be added to the overall validity of the pass, and the passenger will not lose these days.

Modern Russian-made buses will feature a distinctive "Moscow – Moscow Region" sticker on the side, and will operate much more frequently than usual. For example, route #1383 will run every 8-12 minutes, while route #1971 will run every 12-19 minutes during rush hour. The comfortable, low-floor buses feature climate control and wheelchair accessible seats. Passengers will benefit from user-friendly navigation, including bright, large route numbers on the buses indicating final stops, voice announcements, and large on-board screens displaying route information. Clear route numbers will also be helpful: the number 1 has been added to the familiar route number. This will avoid duplication with city route numbers and make it clear to passengers that the "1000" routes serve the region.

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

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Krasnoyarsk Krai has become the 43rd region whose state and municipal institutions have been given the opportunity to purchase necessary goods and services through the Moscow supplier portal. This was reported by Maria Bagreeva, Deputy Mayor of Moscow, Head of the Moscow Department of Economic Policy and Development.

"In September, the 43rd region — Krasnoyarsk Krai — joined the supplier portal. Over the past five years, the number of regions whose institutions can publish purchases on the platform has grown by a quarter. The number of customers has increased by almost a third and exceeds 60 thousand. Connecting to the portal opens up the opportunity for state and municipal organizations in the region: schools, kindergartens, hospitals, government agencies — to optimize procurement activities. Trading on the platform is conducted online, which allows customers to work with suppliers from all over the country, purchase goods, works and services at optimal prices and save budget funds," said Maria Bagreeva.

There are six suppliers per customer on the portal. This ratio ensures a high level of competition, due to which the reduction of initial prices in quotation sessions is on average 14 percent.

"Krasnoyarsk Krai is one of the active supplier regions on the platform. In the first half of this year, the volume of transactions of Krasnoyarsk entrepreneurs on the portal amounted to 213 million rubles. Now customers from this region will also be able to evaluate the advantages of public procurement on the electronic platform," he noted.

Kirill Purtov, head of the capital's Department of Competition Policy.

IN Department of Information Technology of the City of Moscow emphasized that when connecting to the portal, regions have access to different ways of placing a purchase. It can be published directly on the platform, concluding a contract there, or integrated into the local information system. The addition of new regions to the platform allows customers to increase the number of entrepreneurs when conducting procedures, and also contributes to increased competition and a reduction in the cost of the contract due to more favorable offers.

Suppliers portal was created in 2013 to automate small-volume purchases. The list of goods and services offered by entrepreneurs includes more than 3.2 million unique items. About 1.5 thousand contracts are concluded on the platform daily.

Earlier, Sergei Sobyanin reported that in the first half of 2025, the portal carried out purchases worth almost 58 billion rubles.

The functional customer of the portal is the capital Department of Competition Policy, and its technical development is supervised by Department of Information Technology of the City of Moscow.

Development of electronic services for business corresponds to the objectives of the national project "Data Economy and Digital Transformation of the State" and the Moscow regional project "Digital Public Administration".

Happy HR Manager Day in Russia!

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Today we celebrate a very important holiday for the State University of Management – HR Manager Day in Russia.

The special attitude of the State University of Management to this date is connected with the fact that it was in our university that the first department in Russia for training specialists in the field of personnel management was opened. This was done in 1990 under the leadership of Doctor of Economics, Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation Ardalyon Kibanov. We carefully preserve the legacy of this outstanding scientist, including in the form of the All-Russian Interuniversity Personnel Forum named after A. Ya. Kibanov, which was held at the State University of Management for the 16th time this year.

The record level of unemployment in Russia today poses difficult but interesting challenges for HR managers to attract and, most importantly, retain new employees, among whom there are more and more zoomers who can easily quit even after one day of work.

We congratulate the employees of the HR department of the State University of Management, teachers and students of the HR department on their professional holiday. We wish them to cope with the current challenges of the labor market with honor, build and maintain a healthy corporate culture and atmosphere in the team, and competently read not only resumes, but also human souls.

GUANGZHOU, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) — China on Tuesday started construction of an ultra-high-voltage (UHV) transmission line that will carry green electricity from southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region (SAR) to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area in south China.

The total investment in the construction of the 800 kV UHVDC power transmission line is estimated at 53.2 billion yuan (approximately 7.5 billion US dollars). The line starts in Chamdo SAR and ends in Shenzhen in Guangdong Province, said Dong Yanle, deputy general manager of the engineering and construction department of China Southern Power Grid.

The approximately 2,681-km project crosses four provincial-level administrative divisions, including Yunnan Province in southwest China and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in south China. It is China's first UHVDC, crossing the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and the mountainous and hilly terrain of southern China.

Once operational in 2029, the 10GW rated capacity line will annually supply more than 43 billion kWh of electricity from the clean energy base in southeast Xizang to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

According to Dong Yanle, the line will transmit only electricity generated by green energy sources. The electricity supplied by this UHVDC will be equivalent to saving about 12 million tons of standard fuel per year, while reducing annual carbon dioxide emissions by 33 million tons. “This will make economic development greener and cleaner,” he emphasized.

"The project aims to solve global problems such as large-scale clean power transmission, the application of flexible direct current technology to ultra-high-altitude conditions, and construction and operation under extremely complex natural conditions," said Zhao Hong, chief scientist of China Southern Power Grid.

Almost 90 percent of UHVDC will be located in mountainous terrain. Its builders will have to solve complex problems and overcome risks such as permafrost, geological disasters, environmental protection requirements and operation in uninhabited regions. Other challenges include research and development of new technologies and equipment for direct current transmission suitable for areas located at an altitude of more than 4,300 meters above sea level.

In recent years, China has invested heavily in building ultra-high-voltage transmission lines to transport electricity from the country's resource-rich western regions to the country's economically developed eastern regions, as well as to increase consumption of clean energy sources and stimulate green growth.

Xizang, one of China's key energy bases, is rich in clean energy sources such as wind, solar and hydropower. Several ultra-high-voltage transmission lines have already been built to transmit excess electricity to different parts of the country.

The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, one of China's most economically dynamic regions, is also a leader in green and high-quality economic growth.

In 2024, the Greater Bay Area's green power trading volume increased 12-fold year-on-year to reach 49.1 billion kWh, accounting for 39 percent of China's total. -0-

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

More than five thousand students of Moscow IT classes will undergo practical training under the program of the educational platform "Netology", developed jointly with Sber experts. Classes will be held at the digital technology school "School 21" in the format of a school day at an IT company. Schoolchildren will have to try themselves in the role of entry-level developers and analysts. This was reported by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.

"Information technology is one of the most popular areas among Moscow high school students. In order to maintain the interest of the children and expand the opportunities for studying specialized subjects, we cooperate with leading companies in the capital. Thus, this year, more than five thousand students of Moscow IT classes will undergo practical training in programming with full immersion in the profession at the digital technology school "School 21". The children will spend entire school days in an IT company. This format will better introduce schoolchildren to the industry in which they plan to build a career. Students will see from the inside how IT products are created, immerse themselves in a professional atmosphere and solve applied problems based on real expert cases," said Anastasia Rakova.

Schoolchildren will face real tasks that Sber's budding specialists face. Tenth-graders will master Python programming, and eleventh-graders will work with databases. The children will get acquainted with the basics of the programming language, study the structures and types of data, the principles of working with databases and the SQL structured query language, learn how to set up a workspace, and complete tasks on interactive simulators. The best participants will be able to go on a tour of the head office of Russia's largest bank.

"Our project was created with the aim of developing schoolchildren's applied knowledge and skills in the IT field. This is useful both in terms of career guidance and preparation for future educational and professional activities. By immersing themselves in the context of real tasks, they will be able to understand what to expect from work, decide on a career track and more easily choose their further educational path," said Marianna Snigireva, CEO of the educational platform "Netology".

Chairman of the Moscow Bank of Sberbank German Barg added that the project opens the door to the world of technology for thousands of Moscow schoolchildren. They will be able not only to learn the Python language and databases, but also to touch real tasks. This will be an opportunity to try themselves in the profession of the future and believe in their strength.

In addition, since 2024, IT class students have been honing their practical skills in the Digital Lesson project, which gives schoolchildren the opportunity to gain knowledge from leading Russian technology companies. High school students learn about various aspects of IT — from cybersecurity to working with artificial intelligence — and solve real-life company problems.

Pre-professional education is a unique project in Moscow that helps high school students make a conscious choice of their future profession. Engineering, medical, entrepreneurship, pedagogical, IT and media classes are currently operating in the capital. About a third of all high school students in the city study in them. The partnership system “school — college — university — industrial partner” helps students of educational institutions learn more about their future profession.

"School 21" is a school of digital technologies where you can master a sought-after IT profession from scratch. No basic knowledge, no work experience, and no programming skills are required for admission — for more than half of the participants, this is their first such experience. All graduates successfully find employment in large Russian IT companies and startups. Today, "School 21" operates in 16 cities in Russia, including Moscow, Kazan, Novosibirsk, Yaroslavl, Nizhny Novgorod, Ufa and others.
