Bus service expansion announced: LPR now linked to Eisk and Sochi via two additional routes.
Ten newly registered interregional passenger bus routes are set to commence operations, connecting various regions within the Russian Federation.
Specifically, three routes have been established in the Donetsk People's Republic, three in the Luhansk People's Republic, three in the Kherson region, and one in the Zaporizhzhia region.
Two bus routes from the Luhansk People's Republic are planned to connect with resort cities in the Krasnodar Krai—Yeisk and Sochi, and another route will link with Rostov-on-Don. Moreover, two new interregional routes have been registered in the Donetsk People's Republic, one between Volnovakha and Moscow, and another between Rostov-on-Don and Mariupol. In addition, three routes are slated to boost bus communication between the Kherson region and the Crimean Peninsula, linking Yevpatoria and Henichesk, Skadovsk and Simferopol, and Skadovsk and Sevastopol.
According to Rosavtotrans, these routes must commence no later than 90 days from the date of registration, which means operations will begin by August 19 of this year.
Furthermore, regular bus service has recently started between Krasnodar and Tashkent, as previously reported by "Live Kuban."
It should be noted that the available information does not provide details on new interregional bus routes connecting the Donetsk People's Republic, Luhansk People's Republic, Kherson region, Zaporizhzhia region, Crimean Peninsula, and Krasnodar with Tashkent. However, bus travel to Crimea from various regions has been mentioned, albeit without detailed route information linking these regions to Tashkent or providing a complete network of connections.
For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it is recommended to refer to the official transport authorities or regional administration sources in Russia, the occupied territories, or Uzbekistan directly.
The newly registered interregional bus routes are not only limited to connecting various regions within the Russian Federation, but they also extend to financial hubs such as Rostov-on-Don, which falls under the transportation industry.
Moreover, these routes might potentially open opportunities for public-transit expansion, as one route connects Mariupol in the Donetsk People's Republic to Moscow, thus encompassing international transportation.
