The technical task of forming a joint public transport network was given an approval during the government’s session yesterday. After the session, the Minister of Transport, Communication and Information Technologies Vahan Martirosyan told that this project intends to form 1-2 large transport operators: “Depends on how many operators in which province. We will have a single transport network and concepts like owner of the transport, separate routs will not exist.”
When this beautiful project will come to life, the minister hesitated to say, for now, they have developed technical tasks.
What volume of investments the implementation of this project requires and whether operators are in place, the minister answered: “Until the assessment, we need vehicles, what routes and investments are required we cannot say.”
We told that in the upcoming few years it will hardly come to life. The minister responded: “No, the upcoming few years is much you say, but it will not be realized in a month either. There are agreements on transport networks and we can implement that after the deadlines are expired… Now they are over 100, we plan less.”
