History
In Arkhangelsk, the bus began to be used as public transport since June 1907. A bus of the German brand NAG was brought to the city. This car was designed for 25 passengers and weighed 6 tons. Engine power 26 hp
In the 2000s, a large number of PAZ buses were purchased in the city, replacing Soviet-made (LiAZ), Hungarian (Ikarus), Polish (Elch) and Swedish (Volvo)-made buses, after which almost all public transport was represented by PAZ brands and gazelle . Because of this, Arkhangelsk received an unofficial nickname - "the city of Pazikov" [1] .
Until 2016, several illegal routes operated in the city (for example, 1u, 8). In them instead of tickets issued receipts and buses had the inscription "Custom" on the windshield.
In 2018, 30 buses were driven to Arkhangelsk from Moscow in connection with the program to replace Moscow buses with electric buses. The average bus mileage is 100 thousand kilometers, taking into account the haul to Arkhangelsk. They entered the line on December 30, 2018. They operate on routes 6, 9, 11, 12, 44, 54 and 60. [2] .
In some buses (4, 41, 42, 43, 64, 69, 110 and other routes) it is possible to pay for travel with a transport card. [3] In 2019, the city administration added another route, 90n. The route, according to the subscript "n", is night. Carries out its work from 23:00 to 6:00. Only two Gazelle Next run on it - 18 seats A63R45
