What time does public transport start running? How to use your phone to find out when the bus is coming. Routes and schedules of urban ground transport

Moscow public transport is a fairly extensive and developed network of urban passenger transport in the capital and surrounding areas.

Moscow is a densely populated metropolis, and therefore all types of public transport are represented here. In addition to the well-known Moscow metro, a large number of buses, trolleybuses, trams, minibuses, and electric trains run around the city.

There is also river transport, represented by motor ships and pleasure boats, mainly used by tourists for sightseeing trips.

All public transport in the capital is managed by Mosgortrans - http://www.mosgortrans.ru/. In the article we will talk in detail about each type of public transport, schedules and ticket prices, and which public transport is better to choose, for example in the morning.

Metro

The metro is the most popular method of transportation among Muscovites and guests of the capital.

Half of the total daily passenger traffic passes through it every day.

In terms of the quality of structures, expressiveness of the architectural ensemble, technical equipment, operational characteristics and comfort, the capital's metro is significantly superior to foreign subways.

Each station is unique and looks like a museum with beautiful mosaics, huge chandeliers, bas-reliefs and columns.

It is worth noting: A big plus is the availability of free wi-fi in the metro.

Metro map

The Moscow metro ranks first in Europe in terms of load intensity. In total, the metro has 12 lines with a length of more than three hundred kilometers and 207 stations.

At first, a newcomer may get confused in the interweaving of metro lines, but they are all united by one ring line. For the convenience of passengers, there are signs in Russian and English on the walls, floor, and ceiling of the station.

Opening hours

All metro stations are open from 06.00 to 01.00 without a break for lunch and weekends. After closing, the last train goes to the final station.

Fare

Currently, there are several types of metro tickets:

1. The “Single Ticket” card is a universal simplified travel ticket for all types of public transport. One trip will cost 55 rubles, respectively, two will cost 110 rubles.
2. The limit for one or two trips is valid for five days, for twenty or more trips it is valid for three months. The higher the travel limit, the lower the fare. A pass for 20 trips costs 720 rubles, for 40 - 1440, for 60 - 1700. Thus, one route on a single card for 20 trips will cost 36 rubles. This is undoubtedly a pleasant bonus for those who plan to stay in Moscow for a week or more.
3. "90 minutes" card. This card is valid for 90 minutes. One trip costs 65 rubles, two - 130 rubles. A pass for 60 trips or more will cost 2,650 rubles.
4. Electronic cards "Strelka" and "Troika". They can be used to pay for travel on public transport. Upon receipt of them, you must leave a deposit of 50 rubles at the box office. You can top up the balance on your card from any terminal or using the special Moscow Metro mobile application. The cost of one trip in the metro, monorail and ground transport with a Troika card will be only 36 rubles. The card is valid for five years.
5. There are also social passes for students, Muscovites and pensioners. Many travel tickets were issued for various anniversaries and holidays. For example, a travel card dedicated to the year since the founding of the collectors' society.

A few recommendations for those who find themselves on the subway for the first time:

1. The stations have four or more exits to the city and, in order not to waste time, you need to move in advance closer to the center, the beginning, the end of the car.
2. Also, in order to save time, you need to remember the numbers of the cars that stop closest to the escalator.
3. It is advisable, unless there is an urgent need, not to get into the subway during rush hours, which occur in the early morning (07.00 - 09.00) and evening (17.00 - 20.00), since in the massive influx of people it will not be easy for a beginner to navigate the space.
4. Stations when moving to the center are announced by the voice of a man, in the opposite direction - by women. On the Circle Line: stations clockwise are announced in a man's voice, counterclockwise in a woman's voice.

Ground transportation

Buses, trolleybuses, trams are no less popular types of ground municipal transport among Muscovites. The route network of city buses covers not only the territory of the capital, but also nearby settlements.

State Unitary Enterprise Mosgortrans is an organization that maintains and is responsible for the operation of bus routes.

Recently, semi-express route No. 911 was launched (Vnukovo airport - Salaryevo metro station); during its operation, about half a million people used it. Muscovites appreciate this route for its speed and convenience.

Every day, semi-express buses deliver about 150 thousand people to their destinations. Thanks to additional dedicated lanes, bus speeds increase.

Ticket prices

The price of one bus ticket for one trip is 55 rubles. You can purchase it from the bus driver or use the “Unified” pass, which is sold at the metro ticket office or at the ticket office at the bus stop.

In addition to the “Unified”, there is a “TAT” travel card (trolleybus/bus/tram), and a “A” bus pass.

Routes at night

There are eleven routes of ground intracity transport in the capital at night.

Night-time trolleybuses (Bk, Bchr) run a circular route along the streets of the Garden Ring. Their path lies through Zamoskvorechye, Yakimanka, Khamovniki, Arbat, as well as Basmanny, Tagansky, Presnensky, Tverskoy, Meshchansky, Krasnoselsky districts.

Operating interval: every 15 minutes, other trolleybuses operate at half-hour intervals.

Night tram No. 3 runs along the Chistye Prudy metro route - st. Academician Yangel. Route taxi No. 308 runs from the Domodedovskaya metro station to the airport of the same name, the interval is 40 minutes. Ticket prices at night are the same as during the day.

Take note: On the Mosgortrans website http://www.mosgortrans.ru you can find answers to the questions: what time do buses start running at night? There you can also search for ground transport schedules, find out how long trolleybuses, trams and buses run.

How long does the night transport last? Start time for night transport: 23:30. Stopping time: 05:30 am. Sometimes movement occurs around the clock, without interruption.

Below is a diagram of the movement of Moscow intracity transport at night.

Note: using the mobile phone application “Yandex. Transport" can greatly facilitate the search for ground transport schedules. There are sites on the Internet - directories, with the help of which you can build a route.

Route taxis

Marshrutka, as these taxis are popularly called, is certainly a more convenient and less crowded form of urban transport.

The ticket price varies between 25-35 rubles; suburban routes, naturally, will cost twice as much.

There are a lot of commercial minibuses in the capital. The roads are mainly driven by both old Gazelle cars and more modern Ford cars.

The numbers of minibuses and their complete list, as well as the schedule, can be found on the Internet at http://gorod-moskva.ru/transport/mtaxi.php. Minibus taxis operate daily from 6:00 to 24:00.

City stops are equipped with special boards that display the number of public transport, route and interval. This is very convenient for passengers.

Monorail

The Moscow monorail is an experimental passenger mode of transport, consists of one track, runs on an overpass between the metro and VDNKh.

It is a landmark of VDNKh and is used mainly for excursion purposes.

Opening hours: 6:30 - 23:30.

You can pay for travel with a “United”, “Troika” card and all other travel tickets.

Electric trains

Another popular type of railway ground transport is the electric train.

Electric trains run daily and around the clock, from 05.00 am to 01.00 am.

A nice bonus for students is a discount on travel (half the ticket price for adults).

You can buy a ticket for the next train flight from the ticket inspector or at the station ticket office. The ticket is issued for the whole day.

The exit to the platform is blocked by a turnstile. On each platform there are signs in the form of electronic boards indicating the departure time and arrival station. Station names are constantly announced.

Electric trains operate in the following directions:

• Belorussian;
• Gorkovskoe;
• Kazanskoe;
• Kyiv;
• Ring;
• Kursk;
• Leningradskoe;
• Moscow Central Circle;

The price of a ticket within Moscow railway stations for the day is 34 rubles. (for a month - 1570 rubles, for ten trips - 340 rubles), for beneficiaries - 17 rubles, for minors - 8.5 rubles.

Water transport

Recently, river trams have been used mainly for excursion purposes.

For tourists and the local population, a walk along the Moscow River on a river bus is quite an interesting activity: from the board there are wonderful views of the sights and picturesque places.

Vessels operate on a fixed route from mid-April to the end of October.

Several shipping companies offer boat trips in the city: Rechflot, Stolichnaya, Vodokhod, Megaflot. There is no single route of movement; each shipping industry has its own. You can view the schedule here http://transport.mos.ru/river/.

Tickets can be purchased at the riverport box office.

Here is an approximate schedule of the Capital Shipping Company:

There are entertainment programs with interesting excursions, feasts, and dancing. The townspeople love to celebrate birthdays and weddings “on the surface of the water.”

Approximate ticket prices:

1. One way walk to the pier for adults - 550 rubles, for children (from six years old) - 400 rubles;
2. A full-day walk with all stops along the way for adults - 900 rubles, for children (from six years old) - 500 rubles;
3. Ring route Kyiv Station - Kyiv Station for adults - 650 rubles, for children (from six years old) - 450 rubles.

There are several types of public transport in Moscow: bus, trolleybus, tram, metro. There is the Butovskaya light metro line (in the south of the city) and a monorail from the Timiryazevskaya metro station to Sergei Eisenstein Street (in the north). Minibus taxis are very popular. During rush hour, it is better to choose the metro, since ground transport is usually stuck in traffic jams.

There are two river stations on the river - Northern and Southern - and several berths. Navigation opens in spring and closes in autumn, dates may vary depending on ice conditions. Motor ships sailing along the Moscow River are used mainly for excursion purposes.

In summer, bicycle taxis travel along the boulevards. A ride in such a taxi is more of an entertainment experience. There is little practical use from them, since the routes are very short.

Since 2013, several night routes have been operating.

Metro in Moscow

The metro has twelve lines. Stations open for entry around 5:30 (times can vary up to 15 minutes) and close for entry at 1:00. The last trains from the terminal stations of each line depart around 1:03. Line-to-line transfers formally close at 1:00, but in reality the transition is possible later if the last train in the required direction has not yet passed.

The interval of trains in the metro is on average 2-3 minutes, during rush hour on many lines it is 90 seconds, early in the morning and late in the evening up to 5-10 minutes. On the Kakhovskaya and Filevskaya lines, the intervals are longer than usual.

Ground transportation

Buses, trams and trolleybuses start operating at approximately 5:00-6:00. Most lines stop operating after midnight, but there are also those that stop operating in the early evening. Timetables for almost all routes are published on the Mosgortrans websites. At stops, full schedules are indicated for individual lines, for most - only intervals.

Minibus taxis (usually minibuses with 13-20 seats, and line numbers with the letter M) usually do not operate later than 23:00.

City buses have the Mosgortrans logo and serve lines in the number ranges 0-299 and 500-999. Buses with numbers from 300 to 499 are commuter buses (with the exception of some lines in “new Moscow” southwest of the Moscow Ring Road), and city tickets are not valid for them. Buses with numbers starting from 900 can be express buses. There are also separate letter designations for ground transport routes. The most famous of these lines is trolleybus B, which runs around the Garden Ring around the clock.

Among the night routes at the moment there are only four daily ones, including bus 1H, heading to Sheremetyevo Airport. Several more lines only operate on weekend nights and holidays.

Electric trains are not formally part of the Moscow transport system, but in some cases they are the fastest way to travel between some areas. The main problem is the ragged schedule and fragmentation of the network: the bulk of electric trains travel from dead-end stations in the city center to the Moscow region along a dozen radial directions, and only a small number of flights cross the city right through.

Tariffs for public transport in Moscow

Payment for all types of transport at the entrance. The tariff systems of the metro and surface transport were partially unified in 2013. There are two main groups of tickets - valid in any transport (except for minibuses and trains) and valid only in buses, trams and trolleybuses.

Tickets for any transport are available at metro ticket offices, and options for 1-2 trips are available at station machines. The price is 40 rubles for one trip, 80 for two, 150 rubles for five, 300 for 11 trips, 500 for 20 trips, 1000 for 40 trips and 1200 rubles for 60 trips. Thus, in the latter case, one entrance to the transport costs 20 rubles - half as much as a single ticket. Transfers between the metro and the only monorail line are free if the same ticket is used to enter.

Tickets for bus, tram and trolleybus are available only at Mosgortrans kiosks and cost 30 rubles for one trip, 60 for two, 100 rubles for five, 200 rubles for 11 trips, 350 rubles for 20 trips, 700 rubles for 40 trips and 750 rubles for 60 trips.

Transport drivers only sell tickets for 4 trips for 100 rubles. In addition, they also have one-time “90 minutes” tickets available, which cost 50 rubles and include one trip on the metro and an unlimited number of them on ground transport (you must enter the last vehicle no later than 90 minutes after entering the first). Reusable 90 Minutes tickets are sold at kiosks and metro ticket offices. For 2 trips such a ticket costs 100 rubles, for 5 - 220 rubles, for 11 - 450 rubles, for 20 - 750 rubles, for 40 trips - 1500 and for 60 - 1800.

Finally, for those who use transport only from time to time, there is a so-called “electronic wallet”, otherwise known as the Troika card. The passenger first credits the desired amount of money to it, and upon entering the transport, 28 rubles are debited from the card account in the metro, 26 in other transport and 44 rubles in the case of a transfer trip. The Troika card itself will cost another 50 rubles. In addition, other types of tickets can be credited to it, including commuter train passes.

On the electric trains themselves, the price of a single trip within Moscow is 28 rubles. When traveling outside the city, the tariff depends on the distance. Train stations usually have turnstiles at both the entrance and exit; a ticket is required in both cases.

In minibuses the usual fare is approximately 30-40 rubles; on flights outside the Moscow Ring Road it is often higher. Payment only in cash. Sometimes on short sections of the route the price may be lower than the standard price. It should be borne in mind that there are also small minibuses of Mosgortrans with its symbols and a board with the bus route number (without the letter M) - standard tickets are valid for them.

A free wireless Internet network is gradually being deployed in the Moscow metro. So far, several lines are equipped with it (Koltsevaya, Kakhovskaya, Kalininskaya), but it is likely that in the coming years the service will be available on all lines. In addition, access is available on at least part of trolleybus B, tram 3 and express bus 902.

How to get to Moscow airports

The easiest, but also the most expensive way to airports is by Aeroexpress train (to Sheremetyevo from Belorussky Station, to Domodedovo from Paveletsky, to Vnukovo from Kievsky). The fare is 400 rubles (340 if purchased online).

In addition to Aeroexpress, you can get to it by buses 817 and 851 (the fare depending on the ticket used is from 12.5 to 30 rubles), as well as minibuses 948M and 949M (70 rubles), running from the metro stations "Planernaya" and " River Station". In addition, the night bus N1 (12.5-30 rubles) has been launched, running from Leninsky Prospekt through the city center.

You can get to Vnukovo from the Yugo-Zapadnaya metro station by buses 611 and 611c (12.5-30 rubles) and minibus 45M (100 rubles).

To Domodedovo there is bus 308 (100 rubles) and minibus 308M (120 rubles) from Domodedovskaya, as well as about once every 2-3 hours by a regular train from Paveletsky Station (70-105 rubles depending on the landing location in Moscow).

Taxi in Moscow

Taxis in Moscow are extremely expensive for short trips - tariffs from various companies usually start from 350-500 rubles for any trip. As a rule, a trip lasting 20-30 minutes costs the same or a little more.

A trip to the airport usually costs 1000-1500 rubles, even from nearby areas.

Traffic in a big city does not stop day or night. Daytime routes are being replaced by night routes that run during the “dark hours of the day,” which is undoubtedly very convenient for many passengers.

It happens that you are traveling alone on a bus at night, and it becomes creepy. Moscow authorities are rushing to solve this problem with the help of special police patrols that will monitor the movement of night traffic.

Night trolleybuses and trams of Moscow

There are now four routes running along the capital's highways - three trolleybuses and one tram.

The Moscow authorities are listening to the opinions of citizens, and new night public transport routes will appear in the near future.

Future routes

Now every night no more than 2,500 people use Moscow night transport routes. This is not much, considering the entire population of the metropolis. With the advent of new routes, this figure will increase.

Night buses Nos. H4, H5 and H6 were introduced relatively recently thanks to a survey by the Active Citizen portal. Passengers have long appreciated that night routes allow them to save on taxi costs.

In the future, night public transport in Moscow will cover all highways and will be launched to the capital’s airports with the possibility of “pick-up” in the city center.

Now you are familiar with the schedule and prospects for the development of night transport in Moscow - buses, trolleybuses and trams. We are sure that the information will be useful for many residents of the metropolis. Easy roads and pleasant routes!

What time do buses, trolleybuses and trams start running in Moscow?

Moscow bus fleets do not start operating at the same time.

Bus parks start operating from 5 to 6 am.

Some buses leave the line even after 6 o'clock.

Minibus taxis are no different from buses in terms of departure time.

Routes and vehicle schedules can be viewed.

Some ground transport also operates at night:

Public transport in the Russian capital Moscow begins its service at 5:30 am. Some routes start operating at 6 am. On the official website of Mosgortrans you can see the diagram and operating mode of a specific route, and view the traffic schedule. Some routes continue to operate at night, and taxis operate around the clock if you are unable to leave by public transport.

There is no single starting point for the movement of buses, trolleybuses and trams. For example, bus route 29 (Kuzminsky Park - Metro Tekstilshchiki) starts moving from the Kuzminsky Park stop at 5:20 o'clock, and from the Metro Tekstilshchiki stop at 5:57 o'clock.

The transport schedule for a specific route can be found on the Mosgortrans website. Also, for the convenience of passengers, there is an interactive route diagram, information about the start and end of movement of a specific route and the intervals between movements of the selected transport route.

Not all routes are posted on the Mosgortrans website, so you can additionally use the service at this address

Depends on the chosen transport. For example, the first tram 3 goes along the route Balaklava Avenue. – Chistye Prudy metro station on weekdays at 05:33. And the first tram from the Chistye Prudy metro stop is at 05:32.

The first trolleybus 95 on the route Krasnopresnenskaya metro station - Savelovsky station at 05:30, the first trolleybus from Savelovsky station at 05:48.

The first bus 215 station Khovrino metro station Petrovsko-Razumovskaya leaves the depot at 05:36, and from the metro station Petrovsko-Razumovskaya at 06:04.

It is impossible to indicate exactly what time public transport leaves for its route; you need to look at the schedule for a specific transport number and their route. The schedule can be found.

At 5.30 am public transport starts operating. But this is average. In general, I should start at five zero zero in the morning, but... It doesn’t always work out. This applies to buses, trolleybuses and trams. The metro starts running at 6.00 am. Minibuses from 7.00.

The fact is that not all public transport routes in Moscow start operating at the same time. In addition, the time may vary depending on what day of the week it is - weekdays or weekends.

On the website tr-mosckow.ru you can see not only the opening time, but also the full schedule of buses, trams and trolleybuses. It's a little difficult to figure out, so I'll give step-by-step instructions.

• follow the link
• view the schedule of buses, trams or trolleybuses
• press the route number we need
• choose weekdays and weekends
• the final station of the route.

And before us is a minute-by-minute schedule of this route, from the first flight to the last.

At 5:30 a.m. ground transportation starts running, the metro starts at about 6 a.m., although in the morning I found myself at that time ten years ago, but at night last year, having arrived late at the airport, I got into the metro at one in the morning and at one thirty came out.

Public transport starts differently in different areas of Moscow, but in general, somewhere between 5 and 6 am. In extreme cases, on certain routes that are not very busy and run at large intervals, the start of work can be at 6-7 hours. You can find out in more detail what time traffic starts on a specific route on the Mosgortrans website.

Select the type of transport, route, day of the week, direction, stop you need and you will get the exact time when trams, buses and trolleybuses in Moscow begin their movement.

Different transport enterprises begin their work at different times, but in the overwhelming case from 5 o’clock to 6 o’clock, only some later, the least crowded routes with a large headway. You can find out the time of movement of the first vehicles.

Trams and trolleybuses in Moscow start running at 6 am. Most buses and minibuses start operating at 6:30. And only some routes (mostly those starting their route from the outskirts of the city) start operating from 5 am. It takes them longer to get to the center, where most passengers work, so you can leave early on these buses.
