There is a free ride in public transport for viewers and volunteers of the World Cup

You can use this right only when presenting a ticket for a football match and a personified map of the viewer.

(KZN.RU, April 19, Ksenia Shvetsova). Spectators will be given the opportunity to travel free of charge in public transport In the days of the World Cup. This right will be available only upon presentation of a ticket for a football match and a personified map of the viewer.

Marat Khisamutdinov, the deputy chairman of the Kazan Transport Committee, told at the news conference in the IA “Tatar-Inform” that free travel in city public transport will also be provided to volunteers and persons included in FIFA lists, but only if there is an accreditation card and a transport card. The right of free travel in the absence of at least one of the above documents is not provided.

According to Alexey Sidorov, the head of the department of the Ministry of Transport and Roads of the RT, one of the innovations of this year was the reduction in the terms of providing free travel for volunteers. During the Confederations Cup, a free travel was provided 1 month prior to the first match and for a month after the last game. Now free travel will be valid one month before the first game and 10 days after the last match.

“The main documents representing the right of free travel, which is determined by the resolution, are the ticket for the match and the fan id. If these documents are not available, then there is no free travel”, marked A. Sidorov.
