And the proposed new tariff rate will be 3 almost completely spent fuel and do not cover the cost to upgrade vehicles. Children left he proposed fare 1 USD. His arguments for improving expressed fare carriers. They told me that the price of spare parts has increased threefold. If the dollar is on the Riverivni 26 USD, and the cost of fuel per liter will be 21 - 21 UAH 5, then have to make new calculations. They noticed that Luck among the last among cities in Ukraine raises the cost of fares in road transport. Carriers requested fare for children raised to 1.5 USD, then it will be half that for adultsthem. This will help them survive in these difficult conditions.
