This was reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport, Maxim Liksutov.

“We will continue to increase the speed of traffic in the city.

We have set ourselves a goal by 2023 - to reduce the average travel time by public transport in the morning rush hour by another 30% compared to 2010, ”he said.

According to Liksutov, at the moment, ground urban transport in Moscow is coping with the schedule by 98%.

He suggested that the increase in driving speed would save about 125 hours on the road for residents of the capital.

In addition, by the end of the year, it is planned to open nine new stations on the Big Circle Line in the Moscow metro.
