Trolleybus route No. 16, which ensures connection between Ciocana and Centru districts of Chisinau, was reopened on January 22. The Chisinau City Hall said the itinerary was modified so as to solve the problem of increased ridership in the area around the streets Maria Drăgan, Voluntarilor and Uzinelor, IPN reports.
