Baku Metro Switches to Summer Schedule
Baku / 29.06.19 / Turan: The Baku Metro switches to the summer schedule from July 1, the Metro said on Saturday.
"The completion of the school season and the departure of the capital's residents for the summer holidays lead to a significant reduction in passenger traffic. Therefore, every year, the schedule of the Baku Metro changes," the statement said.
According to the new schedule, the interval between train movements will be slightly increased (from 2 to 5 minutes).
The summer schedule will be valid until the beginning of the new school year. The academic year in Azerbaijan begins on September 15 and ends on June 15. -05D-
