The Ministry of Development has closed more than 100 outdated international bus routes

The Ministry of Communities and Territories Development of Ukraine has completed the verification phase of the international bus route network. The Ministry recognized 115 routes as irrelevant, as the carriers had violated the regularity of service.

The decision was made due to the lack of justification from the applicants or their consent to the closure. The list of closed routes is available at

As for the other routes, we are checking and analyzing the carriers' justifications.

As a reminder, in early May, the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade started checking the relevance of international scheduled passenger routes. The purpose of the verification is to create an up-to-date network of routes that are actually operated in accordance with the issued permits.
