Railway stations in five Ukrainian cities have officially been transformed into multimodal transport hubs, combining railway and bus services.
What will change for passengers To the electronic list of bus stations of Ukrtransbezpeka, stations in Lviv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, Berdychiv, and Bila Tserkva were included. Joining the unified system will allow: Officially opening new bus routes directly from railway stations. Bringing carriers out of the “shadow,” replacing informal stops near stations with legal operation. Purchasing tickets in the single system — the next step will be selling bus tickets through station ticket offices and Ukrzaliznytsia’s digital services. Implementing a multimodal ticket that will allow planning and paying for complex routes with transfers (train + bus) in one application. Special priority will be given to routes to and from front-line areas, where combining different modes of transport is key to ensuring accessibility. Safety and legalization of transportation As stated by Serhiy Derkach, first deputy minister for recovery, infrastructure and transport, the main goal of the initiative is to make passenger transport predictable and safe. He emphasized that forming bus routes within a legal framework guarantees passengers’ rights and service quality. Automobile carriers wishing to join the work in transportation hubs and integrate their trips into the Ukrzaliznytsia app can apply by email [email protected] with the note “Multimodal transportation.”
Situation at the stations Let us remind that Ukrzaliznytsia regularly introduces additional safety and infrastructure measures at its facilities. In particular, railway workers remind that photo and video recording on railway property is prohibited under martial law and may lead to criminal liability up to imprisonment. Additionally, Ukraine is developing new solutions to ensure the stable movement of trains during long air alarms. Stations operate around the clock, and updated boarding rules are being prepared for passengers.
