Commitment Title
Provision of urban/public "green" transport
Problem
Urban transport routes, traffic frequency, the technical condition of service vehicles do not meet modern service standards.
In order to regulate the sector, it is necessary to carry out comprehensive monitoring to record the mentioned problems, to offer solutions, to hold transparent tenders with the involvement of civil society, to install electronic information systems at bus stops.
Status quo
Public transport is currently not monitored. There is no information about the technical state of public transport, information about the state of their routes, and information about their status.
Action
Within the framework of the EU "Alliance for Sustainable Green Governance Program", the communities of Vanadzor and Gyumri will purchase 5 electric buses (for each community), which will serve the inner-city routes.
Charging stations will be installed, a ticket validation system will be introduced. In addition, the idea of Green Transport will be taught to the public through campaigns, trainings and other programs.
In order to complete the program and to adapt it to digital technologies, it is necessary to create a mobile application, which will contain both maps of the inner-city routes and roads, as well as the vehicles serving those routes and roads, information on their technical condition, drivers and service.
With the help of the application, it will be possible to see and follow where the vehicle of the given number is at the moment, how long it will be at the stop. In addition, a vehicle information board / Tablo / will be installed at the bus stops, which will inform about the arrival of the vehicle through the countdown.
