Penza, 25 March 2016. PenzaNews. The range of public transportation commute routes to the Zarya residential area of Penza will grow only as more people move there, announced the head of the city Communal Affairs department Andrei Grishin during the 20th City Duma meeting on Friday, March 25.

The transportation issue was brought to the spotlight by the deputy Sergei Sedov, who pointed out that many people recently have been coming to Zarya to see their future flats.

According to him, this led to an increase in requests from the citizens to make more public commute routes available, as transportation remains the only significant obstacle to moving there for permanent residence.

In return, Andrei Grishin stressed that an increase in requests is not reflected in an increase of passengers, and due to that the transportation businesses are against opening new routes to Zarya.

“We will make more routes as soon as they move in,” he said.
