Kyiv authorities are discussing a change to ticketing rules to prevent passengers from paying twice when air‑raid alarms interrupt metro travel. Under the proposal, people forced to leave the metro during an alarm could board buses that duplicate the same route without buying a second fare.
The measure is aimed at situations when metro service is halted for safety and surface buses operate along parallel corridors. Details including which lines, transfer windows, and proof of prior payment have not been published in the available report.
The proposal remains under consideration; commuters should watch for an official announcement from city transport authorities for precise rules and implementation timing.
