In Kherson, two trolleybus routes have been temporarily suspended due to the consequences of enemy shelling.

This was reported by the head of Kherson MVA Yaroslav Shanko.

According to him, the overhead power line was damaged in the central district of the city, which temporarily suspended trolleybus traffic on routes 11 and 12.

Experts are currently assessing the extent of the damage and preparing for emergency repairs.

The city authorities urge residents to consider the changes when planning their trips. The resumption of trolleybus traffic will be announced later.

Earlier, Intent wrote that trolleybuses were temporarily suspended in Kherson due to repairs at power supply facilities.

On the morning of December 31, the head of the Odesa City Administration, Serhiy Lysak, said that due to a shortage of electricity, trams and trolleybuses in Odesa are not working yet.

In the evening of the same day, the mayors of Lviv, Andriy Sadovyi, and Mykolaiv, Oleksandr Senkevych, said that they had sent buses to Odesa to replace the trams and trolleybuses that were not working due to the power shortage.

Earlier, Lysak said that the city was expecting 40 buses from various other cities, including 10 buses each from Lviv and Kropyvnytskyi communities, five buses each from Mykolaiv and Zhytomyr, and three buses each from Vinnytsia and Mariupol. The Bila Tserkva community also joined the support. On the night of December 31, Russians attacked the housing, logistics, and energy infrastructure of Odesa Oblast.

In early January, the number of buses that Odesa received from other communities to replace electric vehicles increased to 27. At that time, the Mariupol community was added to Mykolaiv, Lviv, and Kropyvnytskyi.

The buses that Odesa received from other Ukrainian cities to compensate for the operation of electric transport have been tested and started running on January 5.

The mayor's office also reported that another route was introduced in Odesa in addition to the six previous ones. One bus will run from Svobody Avenue to Architektorskaya Street, thus duplicating the tram route No. 27.
