Transport in Kyiv

Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, has an extensive and rapidly developing transportation infrastructure serving local public needs and facilitating external passenger and cargo traffic.

The publicly owned and operated Kyiv Metro is a fast, convenient and affordable network covering most of the city.

The metro carries an average of 1.422 million passengers daily,[1] 38 percent of Kyiv's public transport.

The Kyiv Trolleybus is the largest of its kind in the world in terms of line length and has many routes spanning the entire city.

Passengers can pay for their ride by tapping Apple / Google Pay phone, Kyiv Tsyfrovyi app, Kyiv Tsyfrovyi plastic card or a paper ticket with a QR code.

The focal point of the Ukrainian national-road system, Kyiv is linked by road to many of Ukraine's principal cities.

The Central Ring (Small Bypass Road) comprises a number of interconnecting, high-capacity roads encircling the city centre, with a full circular route on both banks of the Dnieper, and is congested at rush hour.

Private citizens with cars provide taxi service on an ad hoc basis, generally by picking up people hailing a cab.
