Kirov will receive new buses costing almost 700 million rubles.

      JSC "ATP" is signing two contracts for the supply of new buses with a total value of about 700 million rubles. According to the published draft contracts, the first contract provides for the purchase of large-class buses in the amount of 602.3 million rubles, the second — medium-class buses for almost 97.7 million rubles. The new vehicles will be delivered to Kirov by February 2026. The place of delivery is specified as ATP’s production base on Sormovskaya Street. The purchases are being financed from the regional budget and subsidies allocated for the renewal of the region’s passenger transport. Under the terms of the contract, the buses must meet modern safety and comfort requirements and also be adapted to winter conditions and the transportation of passengers with limited mobility. The delivered buses are intended for intercity and suburban routes, as well as for urban services in Kirov. ATP clarified that the renewal will significantly reduce accident rates and increase the reliability of transport connections in the region. Previously we reported that another 15 new buses had entered service on routes in Kirov. Read more here.
