OREANDA-NEWS. November 29, 2011. The Ministry of Infrastructure works over elimination from the market of some the capital illegal auto carriers that provide services to passengers by means of "spontaneous stoppings" - not provided by schedules that are in flagrant violation of the law on road transport.

Regarding the situation in the market of passenger transportation in the capital, in the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine there is conducted a working meeting chaired by the Director of the Department of Road Transport Dmitriy Petukhov. Participation in it also took leadership of the Chief State Road Transport Inspectorate, the Department of Legal Support and Security Department of the Ministry of Infrastructure, the SE "Kyyivpasservis," the SE "Center Avtoinform."

As a result, it was decided to establish a joint interagency committee (working group), composed of representatives of the prosecutor's office, the Ministry of Interior (police, Department for Combating Organized Crime), the Tax Service, the Chief State Road Transport Inspectorate, KSCA, NGOs, the SE "Kyyivpasservis," the SE "Avtoinform."

The experts will have been developed the plan-schedule of events and inspections concerning the legalization of illegal carriers engaged in sending buses from "spontaneous places" in Kyiv.  The "Kyyivpasservis" in turn will turn out a measures to attract these carriers to cooperate (sending their vehicles to bus station and, if necessary - transportation of passengers from the "spontaneous places" to auto stations of the SE "Kyyivpasservis").

It should be noted that now illegal carriers from the surrounding area bus station "Kyiv" and bus station SE "Kyyivpasservis" and near metro stations: "Zhytomyrska", "Svyatoshyn", "Chernihivska", "Lisova", "Kharkivska", "Lybidska", "Nyvky", "Palace of Culture - Ukraine", "Demiyivska", "Vasylkivska" is performed about thousand departures of buses daily. This causes considerable material damage to state and the official carrier and bus stations and bus stations of Kyiv.

These entities do not carrying privileged passengers, and also do not issue tickets for travel to passengers, thereby refraining from tax transparency, and do not carry compulsory insurance of passengers from transport accidents.
