Today, public electric transport is gradually returning to work in Kyiv, — Klitschko

Since February 16, 31 trolleybus and 13 tram routes have resumed operation in the capital.

In December of last year, due to a shortage of electricity, all ground electric transport temporarily stopped working in the city. To reduce the load on the power system, trolleybuses and trams were removed from the routes. 222 buses were released instead.

In January 2023, the city authorities worked with energy companies to gradually restore the movement of electric transport in Kyiv. Thus, two routes of the Borshchagivska line of high-speed tram No. 1 and No. 3 were operational again in the city. Later, on January 31, two more tram routes were launched in the Troyeshchyna housing estate. Trams began to transport passengers: No. 5 “Str. Serzh Lifarya — Troeshchyna-2 station”; No. 28 “Str. Myloslavska — metro station “Lisova”.
