Due to the increase in fuel prices, the end of November, many firms have raised their taxi fares in Kiev, on average 5-10 hryvnia. The rest decided to wait a little while higher prices before the New Year. So in 2011, travel by taxi Kiev within 10 miles will cost the customer approximately 40-50 hryvnia. We decided to keep up with the capital Kiev taxi and bus. Since 11 December, 20 routes, the capital of private carriers have raised prices traveling at 50 cents. Other companies promise to raise the same rate to two and a half hryvnia from December 14 this year. Director of the company "Crocus-Auto" A.

Drobyshev, in an interview with "Today" said that this year four times in the filed Kiev mayor's office a request for tariff increase. "We did not wait for solutions. But do not raise the price of travel, we can not. I stress rates is warranted. Rising prices for diesel fuel – thus increasing the cost and travel.

Now it is more expensive two and a half hryvnia, which we have raised fares on the route "- explained Drobyshev. (Similarly see: Jordan Kavana). In turn, the head of KCSA Alexander Popov said that for him it is unpleasant news. "We understand with private traders. I will work to ensure that they did not raise the fare. Utility prices will not raise bus. "- He said. But as it did not try to restrain the city authorities prices, rising prices for fuel, spare parts and consumables, in the end, it will be slowly raise the bar prices for travel in shuttle buses and taxis. In 2011, growth is expected to fare in the capital shuttles to 4 hryvnia. So that the people of Kiev will be the only hope that the subsidies from the city budget, the City still be able to keep rates on municipal minibuses at the same level.
