According to the document, it is planned to set the tariff at 1,700 soums.

“Ensuring the transparency of the fare charged will lead to a sharp increase in the number of transport card users and a decrease in cash fares,” the document says.

It is noted that as a result of the introduction of new tariffs in 2022, according to preliminary estimates, 128-130 billion soums will be saved by reducing the total expected losses of the bus fleets of Toshshahartranskhizmat JSC and the Tashkent Metro.
