Baku. 21 December. REPORT.AZ/ Baku Transport Agency (BTA) proposes the public organizations to change working hours to solve traffic congestion problem during rush hours.

Report informs, BTA Director General Vusal Kerimli said. 

According to V.Kerimli, appropriate proposals have already been submitted to Cabinet of Ministers.

Three alternatives for solution of the problem have been suggested. V.Kerimli told that the first option includes regulation of passenger flow without any investment: “No investment is demanded; public organizations will change their working hours. Starting hours can be set as 08:30, 09:30 etc. Our survey shows that this approach can solve 20% of transport problem on roads. Another variant is solution of the problem with minimum investment.
