Capital city to replace 160 buses being operated for public transport www.montsame.mn
On June 29, a regular meeting of the Citizens’ Representative Khural of the Capital City took place virtually. During the meeting, Capital City Road and Transport Projects Manager B.Odsuren introduced a resolution on some measures to be taken in the capital city.
According to the resolution, traffic congestion will be comprehensively resolved with an annual financing of MNT 420 billion. In order to tackle the challenge, professional organizations highlight that there are numerous issues to be resolved such as auto roads, pedestrian overpass, traffic lights, a smart system for roads, and traffic security cameras.
Studies show that it is necessary to replace 70-80 percent of the 960 buses currently being operated for public transport in the capital city. Thus, the capital city is planning to replace 160 buses as starters, 350 buses in 2022, and 150 buses in 2023. Furthermore, many more works are also planned to reduce traffic, including measures to increase the daily amount of passengers from 800 thousand to 1 million, to increase the capital city’s road capacity to 650 thousand cars, and promote government organizations to move to the outskirts of the city.
As drivers currently spend an average of 26 minutes looking for parking spots, works are underway to increase parking spots by 5,000 and introduce a paid parking system, reported the officials. Light rail transit is also being planned for routes including Peace Avenue, and Doloon Buudal - Yarmag as well as one connecting the capital city districts of Songinokhairkhan and Bayanzurkh.
