The number of units of public transport on the routes of Chisinau was increased on September 1. The local authorities said such a step was needed now that the passengers increased in number following the return of students to school and of many persons from leave.

Contacted by IPN, the head of the Chisinau Electric Transport Company Gheorghe Morgoci said that about 300 trolleybuses run on routes today, by 50 units more than in summer. The trolleybuses that crossed Constantin Negruzzi Blvd from today will run as usual, in both directions, except for trolleybus route No. 4.

Gheorghe Morgoci said route No. 4 could not be restored for technical reasons, related to the contact network from Zelinski St, but the problem will be fixed in several days.

Director of the Urban Bus Company Iacob Capcelea said that from today about 120 buses will run on routes in Chisinau municipality. The number of buses was increased, especially on the routes in Chisinau.
