26 More 'Lastochka' Trains Daily Ease Sochi Congestion
The Federal Passenger Company (FPC), a subsidiary of Russian Railways (RZD), has launched 26 additional 'Lastochka' electric trains daily on the route between Sochi and Imeretinsky Resort. This move, a collaborative effort involving regional authorities, the Ministry of Transport, and RZD, aims to ease traffic congestion in Greater Sochi and balance passenger flow on the busy stretch.
The 'Lastochka' trains, known for their speed and comfort, will now stop at Maikop, Host, Adler, and the Scientific Park before reaching their final destination at Imeretinsky Resort. This expansion is set to provide a more convenient and efficient travel experience for passengers, connecting various parts of the region with modern technology.
The initiative is a result of cooperation between the regional administration, the Ministry of Transport, the carrier, and JSC Russian Railways. It underscores their commitment to improving public transport and reducing congestion in the Greater Sochi area.
The launch of these additional 'Lastochka' trains is expected to significantly improve travel options for residents and visitors alike, distributing passenger flow more evenly and reducing traffic pressure on the overloaded section. For the latest information on these services, passengers are advised to consult the official websites of RZD or JSC 'FPC'.
