Long queues of those who wish to buy tickets for intercity buses continue to form near the ticket offices at the bus stations “Vostochnaya”, “Kurortnaya” and “Aeroport”. KrymMedia informs about that.
Traffic operators explain the slow work of cashiers by introduction of a new ticketing system that was installed following the Russian legislation.
“The final equipment registration will be finished until the end of this week. Besides, three additional teller’s windows to sale tickets were opened at the Simferopol bus station “Aeroport”. Earlier, just one ticket office has operated at the bus station,” the SUE Krymavtotrans’ director Andrey Avtaev informed.
People have to stand in the queue for more than two hours. By the way, at the bus station “Kurortnaya” the passengers have to stay in queues under the boiling sun.
“I had to get from Simferopol to Alushta by trolley, because it was impossible to buy tickets for the bus. You will stay in the queue for a good hour, but will fail to buy the ticket for the bus leaving the station. Meanwhile, the mini buses are half-empty! I went to Alushta not for vacation purposes, but for a business trip and it took a lot of time to get by trolley,” the Crimean woman Irina said.
