WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

A resident of the Krylatskoye district took a social card from her son and went to a kiosk to top it up. In order for a student to travel for free on public transport (any), you need to pay 630 rubles. Of these, 380 are for the metro and monorail, and 250 are for buses, trolleybuses and trams. If the boy had traveled at an adult fare, he would have had to pay five times more for travel. Therefore, there is no point in refusing a social card, which, by the way, is issued completely free of charge (how exactly, see below - author's note).

But it so happened that topping up your travel card account is a whole problem! - said the woman. - At least, we have been trying to solve it for several days.

All Mosgortrans kiosks where salespeople work have been closed in our area. Not every metro station has terminals. And many do not have the “replenishment of social cards” function; through them you can only top up “troika”. I called " hotline» Mosgortrans. They said that you can buy a school pass through Eleksnet machines. In our area, this machine is located a 20-minute walk from the metro station. Let's go. As a result, the terminal wrote: “The service on the machine is temporarily unavailable.” It would seem that what could be easier than buying a bus ticket? Maybe they do this so that schoolchildren and students travel at adult rates?

HOW TO FIND A KIOSK OR TERMINAL

The press service of the State Unitary Enterprise Mosgortrans told KP correspondents that at the moment kiosks with live sellers are being actively closed, and instead they are being replaced by terminals that operate around the clock. You can recognize them from afar - these are large white square monolithic blocks with screens. You can pay for travel on ground transport either in cash or using a bank card (from any bank). Now you can pay for a travel ticket at 98 Mosgortrans retail outlets - these are the same kiosks where sellers sit. Another 50 terminals operate autonomously. And 25 are at the connection stage.

The address of each point can be found on our website www.mosgortrans.ru, the company reported. - To do this, click on the “passengers” section, then “tariffs and tickets” and, finally, in the left navigation column - “points for selling tickets and replenishing the balance of transport cards.” And there are all the addresses - every single one (173 in total). Let's say, in the area of ​​the Krylatskoye metro station there are 17 points for replenishing student social cards.
