Transport was the focus of the third annual Kyiv Smart City Forum, held in the Ukrainian capital on Oct. 31, with Kyiv (Kiev)mayor Vitaly Klitschko on hand to present hi-tech solutions to the city’s perennial traffic problems.

The mayor said all public transport vehicles now have a Global Positioning System tracker that allows passengers to plan their trip more effectively, cutting down on waiting times. The mayor added that starting from Nov. 1, a unified transit pass had been introduced to help the city switch to a cash free fares system.
