Bus park No. 3 in the city of Orsha has been supplemented with new transport
The topic of public transport for the residents of Orsha is quite relevant. It is under constant control of the district leadership. Journalists from "Arshanka" have repeatedly raised it in the pages of the newspaper and on their social media. And we see that the situation is changing for the better.
At the end of last year, we talked about the plans of the bus park No. 3 of Orsha to acquire 14 new buses this year. And now these plans are starting to come to life.
Just last week, the enterprise received the first four brand new MAZ-303 buses. In the near future, the delivery of another four is expected. This is a significant event for the city, as the renewal of public transport directly affects the comfort and quality of passenger transportation.
As the head of the bus fleet, Vladislav Stankevich, explained, all the received buses are of Belarusian production, but with the use of Chinese components. They are designed for 26 seats, and their total capacity is 76 people. The new buses will be used on the most demanded city routes: 1st, 2nd, 5th, 23rd, as well as on peak directions such as 12th, 13th, 14th, and 18th.
Among those who received the keys to the new transport are experienced drivers Ziya Ahmad and Alexander Vladimirovich. Alexander Mikhailovich is a veteran of the enterprise, with over 41 years of work experience. Over the years, Alexander Mikhailovich has established himself as a responsible and conscientious worker. He always carefully monitors the technical condition of his transport, actively participates in repairs, ensuring the safety and reliability of transportation. Ziya Ahmad has also been working at the enterprise for more than 17 years. For his impeccable and accident-free work, the bus fleet management decided to entrust him with a new bus as well.
The residents of Orsha have already been able to appreciate the advantages of the new passenger transport – comfortable soft seats and a spacious cabin. The arrival of eight new buses will not only relieve the demanded routes, replace outdated equipment, and reduce the financial burden on the enterprise due to constant downtimes and breakdowns, but also improve the rhythmic operation of public transport in the region.
