Cameras recording violations in public transport lanes will be installed on the front of Tashkent buses by December 15. The Tashkent City Council of People's Deputies made this decision on October 30.

The cameras will be mobile: they will automatically record violations while the bus travels along its route, and the recordings will be linked to the unified database of the Road Traffic Safety Department. This task was assigned to the city Road Traffic Safety Department, the Main Department for the Development of Transport and Road Transport Infrastructure of Tashkent, and the Toshshakhartranskhizmat company.

The Council also instructed the same bodies to intensify regular raids from November 1 against passenger and private cars driving or stopping illegally in dedicated bus lanes ("A" lanes).

The decision was adopted following a report by the deputy khokim of Tashkent for transport on the performance of public transport in the third quarter. It notes that eight cameras monitoring dedicated bus lanes are already operating on a 6-kilometer section of the Fergana Highway (Fargona Yuli). This clause of the decision does not specify how many buses will receive cameras or on which routes.

What it means

Starting November 1, Tashkent is stepping up raids against cars driving and stopping illegally in bus lanes; by December 15, cameras recording violations in these lanes are to appear on the front of buses.
