PUBLIC TRANSPORT IN ALMATY
In Almaty, the bus is the main means of transport for passengers not having their own transport. The longest bus route - № 63. V 2011 were canceled benefits for public transport for students, students over 15, pensioners canceled free travel to the Interior Ministry. Instead, they were introduced nominal concessionary tickets. Pension ticket will cost 1500 tenge, Student 2250, the school - 850.
The public transport system in Almaty is actually alright, despite what many local Kazakhs have told me. You can take the bus, trolley bus or tram almost anywhere in the city if you know what number to take. I myself only really use the buses, they cost 80 Tenge regardless of where you are going and you will either pay a conductor, the bus driver or a machine on the bus. Buses are usually quite busy and you will find yourself in cramped situations often, although there are times when they are empty. Also if you use buses you may want to look out for the hierarchy of who can sit. Generally if you are young there's no point sitting down on the bus.
Features Almaty buses Striking feature of the city buses in Almaty is a special tradition of conductors that are at each stop off the bus (or leaning out of the open doors and windows) loudly announce further route. This is due to the effects of internal labor migration. In Almaty, a lot of other cities, every day, coming to work in other settlements of the region, and many new residents moving from other areas and know the bad town. This practice in other cities of Kazakhstan are largely met.
Also characteristic is the fact that at the beginning of the route buses "rubber" - traveling at 20 km / h, asserted at the station for 1 -5 minutes or even 20 minutes, when a competitor starts " Much of the route during peak hours is always packed rides, many bus stops do not stop because there is no room for new passengers. In almost every bus there are “robbery" - so-called Pickpockets who work both alone and a few people, so tourists should be very careful.
There is also the underground, which is pretty limited at the moment with perhaps six stations, but it is set to be extended in coming years. Anyway that's our evaluation of Almaty transport, but I have only been here for a short time(4 years) and I am sure others can add more.
