On October 9, 2026, in Kyiv, the movement of some public transport has been temporarily suspended due to a lack of electricity in the energy system. The restrictions affect the Obolon, Podil, and Svyatoshyn districts.
Reasons for the Suspension
According to preliminary information, the power supply issues arose due to an attack on an energy facility in the suburbs of Kyiv. As a result, the energy system experienced a failure, leading to power outages in several districts of the capital.
Impact on Public Transport
Due to the lack of electricity, the company "Kyivpastrans" reported the suspension of the movement of the following types of transport:
- Buses
- Trolleybuses
- Trams
Currently, the movement of part of the transport is halted, and further information about the resumption of services will be provided later.
Next Steps
The local authorities and "Kyivpastrans" are working to resolve the power supply issue. It is expected that information about the resumption of transport movement and possible changes to schedules will be provided soon.
