Start of minibuses. How are numbers given to public transport routes? International and intercity bus routes

For several years, a picture-meme has been circulating on the Internet - the emotional obscene impressions of a provincial from Moscow. Among them there is a phrase: "Bus 483rd, not a fig for yourself!" The logic of the numbering of urban transport is, indeed, not always obvious. The Village learned how the numbers are assigned to buses, trolleybuses and trams.

Press Service of the State Unitary Enterprise "Mosgortrans"

All routes of the city's passenger transport in the capital have one-digit, two-digit and three-digit numbers. This numbering has developed historically and does not change. On new directions, the transport is assigned new numbers or numbers of previously canceled routes. All numbering is individual, but there are also coincidences: routes of different types of transport can be marked in the same way. Thus, tram No. 3, trolleybus No. 3 and bus No. 3 travel around the city, but they all follow different routes.

There is no need to assign four-digit numbers to new routes yet. There are, however, bus routes No. 1001, 1002 and 1004, which previously belonged to commercial carriers. In 2013, they were transferred under the control of Mosgortrans; for the convenience of passengers, the numbers were not changed.

Sometimes the numbering takes into account the specifics of a particular route. For example, in Moscow there are several "social" directions of movement, they cover educational institutions, medicine, social protection. The numbers of such routes begin with the letter C: C1, C2 and so on. There are also night routes of ground urban transport, these are buses No. H1, H2, H3. The letters are also used for shorter flights: they duplicate the busiest sections of the route. To make it easier for passengers to navigate, when entering such a route, the letter "k" (short) is added to the main number. There is, for example, bus route No. 709, which goes from the Orekhovo metro station to the Kashirskaya metro station, and there is No. 709k, which goes from the Orekhovo metro station to the Moskvorechye platform.

Konstantin Trofimenko

Director of the Center for Research on Transport Problems in Megalopolises, HSE

There is no special system for the numbering of transport in Moscow - it is a wild mixture between the route numbers of a century ago, Stalin's, Brezhnev's and numbers of the 1990s. They all layered on top of each other.

There are also routes that use letters in the designation. This may be due to the fact that the transport route was once divided into two parts. It also happens that the route forks: the transport follows the route, and then its variant, to the numbering of which the letter A is added, turns to the right. The variant without such a letter continues to follow straight. All this, of course, causes confusion. City navigation is not user-friendly at all. If a person does not specialize in this topic, he is unlikely to know about any routes other than those that he needs.

In Soviet times, work was regularly carried out to optimize the urban transport system. In the 90s, they stopped doing this, and now attempts are being resumed. Last year, not only the problem of transport numbering was raised, but also the question of the need for certain routes. It happens that they lose their relevance: for example, there was a bus that took people to the plant. The enterprise was closed, and people stopped going there, but the route continues to function. Does the city need it? But, unfortunately, so far these works have not led to a positive result.

Public transport in Moscow is a fairly extensive and well-developed network of urban passenger transport in the capital and surrounding areas.

Moscow is a densely populated metropolis, and therefore all types of public transport are represented here. In addition to the well-known Moscow metro, a large number of buses, trolleybuses, trams, minibuses, electric trains run around the city.

There is also river transport, represented by motor ships and pleasure boats, mainly used by tourists for excursion walks.

All public transport in the capital is managed by Mosgortrans - http://www.mosgortrans.ru/. In the article, we will talk in detail about each type of public transport, timetables and ticket prices, and which public transport is better to choose, for example in the morning.

In contact with

Underground

The metro is the most popular way of transportation among Muscovites and guests of the capital.

Half of the total daily passenger traffic passes through it every day.

In terms of the quality of structures, expressiveness of the architectural ensemble, technical equipment, operational characteristics and comfort, the metro of the capital is significantly superior to foreign subways.

Each station is unique and looks like a museum with beautiful mosaics, huge chandeliers, bas-reliefs and columns.

Its useful to note: a big plus is the availability of free wi-fi in the metro.

Metro map

The Moscow Metro ranks first in Europe in terms of load intensity. In total, the metro has 12 lines with a length of more than three hundred kilometers and 207 stations.

At first, a beginner can get confused in the intertwining of subway lines, but they are all united by one circular line. For the convenience of passengers, signs in Russian and English are placed on the walls, floor, ceiling of the station.

Opening hours

All metro stations operate from 06.00 to 01.00 without lunch breaks and weekends. After closing, the last train goes to the terminal station.

Fare

Currently, there are several types of metro passes:

1. The "Single Ticket" card is a universal, simplified travel ticket for all types of public transport. One trip will cost 55 rubles, respectively, two will cost 110 rubles.
2. The limit for one or two trips is valid for five days, for twenty or more trips it is valid for three months. The higher the travel limit, the lower the fare. A travel card for 20 trips costs 720 rubles, for 40 - 1440, for 60 - 1700. Thus, one route with a single card for 20 trips will cost 36 rubles. This is undoubtedly a nice bonus for those planning to stay in Moscow for a week or more.
3. Card "90 minutes". This card is valid for 90 minutes. One trip costs 65 rubles, two - 130 rubles. A travel pass for 60 trips or more will cost 2650 rubles.
4. Strelka and Troika electronic cards. They can be used to pay for travel on public transport. Upon receipt at the box office, you must leave a deposit of 50 rubles. You can replenish the balance on the card from any terminal or using the special mobile application "Moscow Metro". The cost of one ride in the metro, monorail and ground transport with the Troika card will be only 36 rubles. The card is valid for five years.
5. There are also social passes for students, Muscovites and retirees. A variety of travel cards have been issued for various anniversaries and holidays. For example, a travel card dedicated to the year since the founding of the collectors' society.

A few recommendations for those who first came to the metro:

1. The stations have four or more exits to the city and, in order not to waste time, you need to move in advance closer to the center, beginning, end of the car.
2. Also, in order to save time, it is necessary to remember the numbers of the cars that stop closest to the escalator.
3. It is advisable, without an urgent need, not to get into the subway during rush hours, which fall in the early morning (07.00 - 09.00) and in the evening (17.00 - 20.00), since it will not be easy for a beginner to navigate in space in a massive influx of people.
4. Stations when moving to the center are announced by the voice of a man, in the opposite direction - by women. On the circular line: stations are announced clockwise with a man's voice, counterclockwise with a woman's voice.

Land transport

Buses, trolleybuses, trams are no less popular types of ground public transport among Muscovites. The route network of city buses covers not only the territory of the capital, but also nearby settlements.

SUE Mosgortrans is an organization serving and responsible for the operation of bus routes.

Recently, a semi-express route No. 911 was launched (Vnukovo airport - Salaryevo metro station); during its operation, about half a million people used it. Muscovites praised this destination for its speed and convenience.

Semi-express buses take about 150,000 people to their destinations every day. Additional dedicated lanes increase bus speed.

Ticket prices

The price of one ticket on the bus for one trip is 55 rubles. You can buy it from the bus driver or use the “United” travel card, which is sold at the metro ticket office or at the ticket office at the bus stop.

In addition to "United", there is a TAT pass (trolleybus / bus / tram), a bus pass "A".

Routes at night

In the capital, there are eleven routes of surface intracity transport at night.

Night time trolleybuses (Bk, Bchr) pass a circular route along the streets of the Garden Ring. Their path lies through Zamoskvorechye, Yakimanka, Khamovniki, Arbat, as well as Basmanny, Tagansky, Presnensky, Tverskoy, Meshchansky, Krasnoselsky areas.

Route taxis

Traveling around Moscow is interesting and exciting! And, thanks to the well-functioning and organized system of intracity transport communication, it is also convenient.

Moscow is definitely a huge city. Many people live here - order 12 380 664 (for 2017) people. And this figure is growing every year. The capital of the Russian Federation is attractive, of course, for a huge number of people both in our country and abroad. And surely many visitors would like to knowuntil what time do the buses run in Moscow.

Types of public transport in the capital

Of course, most visitors prefer to move around the capital using underground transport. The metro in Moscow is designed very conveniently. It can be used to get to almost any part of the city. The metro of the capital workson regular days from 5:30 am. Stations close at one in the morning. This is of course also convenient. But, unfortunately, it is not always possible to get to the desired place in Moscow by metro. Visitors and residents of the capital have to use land transport quite often.

If it is not possible to get directly to the destination by metro, the passenger can take:

trolleybus;

tram;

bus;

minibus;

electric train.

Of course, most often, guests of the capital use such a form of public transport as minibuses and buses. You can get to your destination on them as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, there are not so many trams left in the capital.

Moscow bus stations

There are many departure points for minibuses and city flights in the capital. But the actual bus stations in Moscowjust two:

Central (unofficial name "Shchelkovsky"), located on the highway of the same name, at number 75.

City air terminal on Leningradsky Prospekt, from which intercity buses depart.

Small bus stations in the capital are usually located near the entrances / exits of the metro. There are departure points for buses and minibuses, for example, at the stations Vykhino, Tushinskaya, Orekhovo, Teply Stan, Krasnogvardeyskaya, Cherkizovskaya, etc. There are such hubs near Kazansky and Paveletsky railway stations.

There is also a station in North Butovo. From herefor example, flight 858 goes to Shcherbinki. Some guests of the capital would like to knowuntil what time does bus number 858 "Moscow" - Shcherbinki ". The first flight on weekdays on this route leaves at 05:20 (05:35 - on weekends).arrives in Butovo at 02:21.

From what time to what time do buses run in Moscow

Of course, the administration of the capital is doing everything possible to make it as convenient as possible for its residents and guests to move around the city. In the morning, most buses leave from stations and train stations at 5 am. On ordinary days, this type of transport in the capital finishes its work most often at 1.30 at night. But there are, of course, many exceptions to this rule.

So, for example, routes duplicated by electric trains can finish work at 23:00.And this is understandable. Late passengers will be able to easily reach their destination by rail.Some significant flights operate in the capital and later than 1.30. Many guests and residents of the city would probably like, for example, to find outuntil what time does bus number 851 "Moscow -Sheremetyevo. ”This flight ends at 1:50.

In most cases, Moscow minibuses operate on a slightly different schedule. Most often they go to the station at 21: 00-22: 00.

Schedule for the New Year

Of course, many guests and residents of the city would like to know, including aboutuntil what time do buses run in Moscow during the holidays.INon such days, the bus stations of the capital most often work as usual... But there are, of course, exceptions in this regard. For example, the city administration changes the timetable for the movement of ground vehicles for the New Year. After all, at night on this day through the streetscapital Cities a lot of people are moving. So, for example, in 2017, in the Central Administrative District, the work of buses was extended until 3:00 hours.

How long do the buses run in Moscow: night flights

so, on ordinary days the buses of the capital operate only until 1.30. However, those passengers who missed their flight should not be discouraged. Moscow is a big city, and life here is in full swing at night. Therefore, in the capital, including flights, plying around the city are provided at this time of the day.They run in most cases from 1 am to 5:30 am.

Nightbusroutes in the capital there are only11 - these are №№ Н1-Н6, №308, №№ 63Тand some othersflights... Transport runs at this time of the day mainly along significant lines.

Trolleybuses and trams

So we found out until what time do the buses run in Moscow. 611 flight "Moscow - Vnukovo" leaves the airport for the last time at 1:22. The bus leaves Sheremetyevo at 1:50. Most of the routes leave for the park at 1:30.

Working hours other types of land transport in the capital are slightly different. So, Moscow goes mainly only until 12 o'clock at night. Some flights can carry passengers up to 1:00 or 22:00 hours. There are also several night trolleybuses in the capital. They mostly go to railway stations or other similar significant places every hour.

Trams in the capital usually start at six in the morning. In most cases, they finish their work at 00:35. There is only one night tram in the capital - No. 3. It follows through the entire Central Administrative District from st. Academician Yangel to the Chistye Prudy metro station.
