The Yekaterinburg mayor's office has abandoned plans to privatize Gortrans.
The authorities of Yekaterinburg do not plan to privatize the municipal carrier "Gortrans" because of the transport reform.
"We have enough trouble setting up operations under gross contracts. Since the start of the transport reform, public transport has become a good municipal service; privatizing all of it now makes no sense," a source told Kommersant.
According to EAN, in recent months the city administration has privatized some municipal unitary enterprises (MUEs). For example, the market for school lunches was transferred to private hands. In addition, the mayor's office is getting rid of municipal baths and pharmacies.
Earlier it was reported that in Yekaterinburg the costs of the transport reform would increase fivefold.
