Ilsur Metshin: “The new reality forces us to adjust previously developed programs”
The quality of public transport services can help reduce the burden of the road network, reduce congestion and harmful emissions into the atmosphere. This view was shared by the Mayor of Kazan, President of the UN Advisory Committee of Local Authorities (UNACLA) Ilsur Metshin at the regional meeting for the Asia-Pacific, which takes place on June 9-10 in Bangkok.
For two days, experts from different countries discuss the development of urban transport, its safety and efficiency in online and offline formats. Kaveh Zahedi, Deputy Executive Secretary of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and Pacific (ESCAP), welcomed the participants at the beginning of the meeting.

The Mayor of Kazan said that a single route network has been developed in the capital of Tatarstan, the public transport vehicle fleet is being updated, and in particular, gas-engine fuel buses that meet high environmental standards are being purchased. “Thanks to regular changing, the average age of the Kazan public transport vehicle fleet is 4.5 years, - the Mayor noted. – All vehicles are low-floor, providing the accessibility of transport to the elderly and people with disabilities”.
In Kazan, the adaptive traffic control system (ATSC) of the fifth generation is being operated.

In particular, a single parking space has been created, left turns have been canceled at certain intersections, the entry of trucks into the downtown has been restricted, and lanes for public transport have been dedicated.
Some of the projects aimed at improving transport services, reducing traffic congestion and, as a result, emissions of harmful emissions into the atmosphere, are implemented in cooperation with the UN.
“We should support international cooperation, look for new formats and share best practices, - I.Metshin said. - The new reality forces us to adjust previously developed sustainable development programs”.
