On the collective appeals portal “Mening Fikrim” (“My Opinion”), people posted a petition on the allocation of a separate lane for public transport. 

It was noted that given the high level of congestion in Tashkent, in order to create convenience for citizens using public transport, it is necessary to allocate a separate section of the road for public transport, in particular, buses and taxis.

It was stated that it is necessary to impose an obligation to give way to buses for light vehicles moving in lanes during peak hours, and this should be regulated with the help of Traffic Department staff.

“In view of the above, we propose to allocate a separate lane for the movement of public transport,” the petitioner wrote.
