In Lviv, there are plans to change the route of bus service No. 67, which links the settlement of Bryukhovychi with the central part of the city. The route’s terminus will be moved from Shpytalna Street to Ivan Pidkova Square in the centre of Lviv. This was reported by the Transport Department of Lviv City Council.
According to city officials, the new route is to be introduced approximately a month after the changes are approved by the police. Until then, buses will continue to run along the current route.
The Transport Department explained that the route adjustment was made at the request of the carrier TzOV “Epitranse”. The reason cited is the difficult passage of large buses along Danylyshyna Street, which the route currently uses.
“The changes in question are primarily aimed at improving conditions for public transport operations, ensuring road safety and maintaining approved timetables. The revised route will allow for more reliable transport links between Bryukhovychi and the central part of Lviv, as well as improving the predictability of services for passengers,” the Lviv City Council Transport Department noted.
Acting Director of the Department of Urban Mobility and Street Infrastructure of Lviv City Council, Oleh Partyka, stressed that by relocating the terminus it will be easier for passengers to transfer to other city routes in the city centre.
The number of buses in service and the timetable will remain unchanged after the terminus is moved. As before, on weekdays the route will be served by 4 vehicles, and at weekends by 2 buses.
Once the updated route has been approved by the police, bus No. 67 will run as follows: the settlement of Bryukhovychi (Nezalezhnosti Ukrainy Street) — Bryukhovytska Street — T. Shevchenka Street — Zakhysnykiv Ukrainy Street — Horodotska Street — Svobody Avenue — I. Pidkovy Square — Svobody Avenue — Torhova Street — Horodotska Street — T. Shevchenka Street — Bryukhovytska Street — the settlement of Bryukhovychi (Nezalezhnosti Ukrainy Street).
The exact launch date for the updated No. 67 route in Lviv will be announced separately. City Hall reminds residents that this route began operating on 1 August this year.
