Enhancing Odesa's Bus Fleet
07 January 2026
As part of the Ministry of Social Policy's initiative «Shoulder to Shoulder: United Communities», the city of Odesa has added 27 buses to its fleet (from Kropyvnytskyi, Mykolaiv, Lviv, and the Mariupol community).
The existing social routes that mirror the electric transport patterns continue to operate in the city.
Additionally, a new route has been introduced: «Freedom Avenue – Architect Street» (1 bus). This route mirrors tram line No. 27.
On January 6, Odesa welcomed 5 more buses from Zhytomyr as part of the «Shoulder to Shoulder» project. These are articulated buses that will be gifted to the city.
They will soon undergo testing and will be deployed on city routes alongside other vehicles from various communities.
