Speaking at an event dedicated to the presentation of advanced solutions in the field of transport in Moscow on October 3 with the participation of representatives from nearly 40 localities across Russia, Liksutov said that the solutions implemented in Moscow could be replicated nationwide. Thanks to this, localities do not need to create their own ticketing solutions or parking payment systems, thus, they will be able to use the tools that have been successfully experimented in the capital.

Participants were briefed about best models for developing urban transport systems as well as advanced digital services for drivers and passengers. Specifically, Moscow's SberTroika ticketing system, Russia's first self-driving tram, the "Russian Parking" app, and the virtual assistant chatbot Alexander were showcased at the event.

Liksutov pledged that Moscow will transfer systems free of charge and provide assistance in implementation and maintenance, adding that it stands ready to share successful practices and collaborate with localities to improve the quality of life for citizens.
