Kaunas public transport network overhaul

Overview

The city of Kaunas is planning a major overhaul of its public transport network to improve efficiency and reliability. The city intends to move away from a fragmented system with overlapping routes toward a terminal-based model. This strategy involves establishing specialized transfer points in various micro-districts to increase vehicle frequency and reduce travel times.

In addition to the structural network changes, the city is promoting sustainable mobility through initiatives such as Sustainable Mobility Week. This includes events like walking tours, cycling excursions, and temporary road dedications for micro-mobility users on Karaliaus Mindaugo Avenue. The city continues to invest in bicycle paths and infrastructure to encourage alternatives to car commuting.
