Intellectual system of transport control is a myth
Public Organization "Youth Majlis" held a meeting on transport issues. According to this structure, there is a need to discuss the following facts: bus drivers do not have driving licenses; traffic accidents with multiple fatalities, the mistreatment the passengers.
It was noted that the Ministry of Transport has monopolized this area, and ongoing problems of transport are the result of absence of healthy competition in the transport sector. According to the participants, intelligent transport control system, which cost 100 million manat, failed. The participants noted that the Ministry of Transport simply "wrote off" the state funds.
The meeting participants also noted inability of the metro leadership to establish normal work underground. Cars, as well as entrance and exit in the subway are always full of passengers. Only one escalator works.
Shopping facilities prevent the free movement of passengers. The intervals between the trains must be two minutes at lease, but mainly they are higher than this time. According to the youth, to improve the situation it is necessary to apply a single card system, to ensure transparency, and eliminate monopoly.
* "Youth Majlis" was created in November of this year by more than fifty activists. The purpose of the organization is to discuss problems and their resolution, the attraction of young people to participate actively in the political life of the country. -05D04-
