“Right now we do not have a right to resume train movement in the underground, until we are sure every person in the underground - at the stairs, on a train or platform - is safe,” he said adding trips by the ground kinds of transport would remain free for the time being. Besides, the city’s authorities have asked private transport companies not to charge passengers.
The traffic along three lines of Kiev’s underground was suspended on Tuesday evening due to the mass clashes in central Kiev. In the unrest, car owners hurried to shelter their vehicles away from the central districts. The roads practically stopped in collapse, thus adding security reasons to the city’s authorities to close the underground.
Passengers had to look for alternative routes. Only taxi drivers seem to have benefited from the situation, as some of them chose to inflate fares dramatically.
