Tajikistan Tightens Public Transport Rules: Passenger Limits and Reporting Mechanisms

Dushanbe Public Transport Passenger Limits: New Regulations and Reporting Mechanisms Dushanbe, Tajikistan – Passengers in Dushanbe and other Tajik cities now have clearer guidelines on the number of people allowed on public transport. Recent regulations specify limits for both seated and standing passengers, with the information clearly posted at the entrance of each bus and trolleybus. This measure aims to improve safety and reduce overcrowding. "These norms are crucial for public safety," stated a representative from the Dushanbenaqliyothadamotrason agency. "Overcrowding can lead to accidents and discomfort for passengers." The agency also highlighted that drivers who violate these passenger limits can face administrative penalties under Article 320 of the Administrative Code. For passengers, a clear mechanism for reporting violations has been established. They can contact Dushanbenaqliyothadamotrason directly at 93-999-85-10 or 224-38-07 to report any instances of overcrowding. The initiative aims to improve the overall experience of public transportation in Tajikistan, ensuring a safer and more comfortable ride for all citizens.
