The bus station in Petropavlovsk fully meets modern requirements. There is a fairly spacious waiting room with enough seats, and you can also sit on the covered boarding platforms before boarding the buses. There are kiosks where you can buy drinks, sweets, souvenirs, etc. and even a small cafe. All this is good and convenient. But flights have been reduced to a minimum, especially after the pandemic. There are practically no flights in the evening or early in the morning, especially for long distances - Novoishimsky, Bulaevo, Sergeevka, Timiryazevo, Kokchetav, Kustanai. But on the forecourt there are dozens of private owners' cars - they shout, they offer to take them anywhere.
But it's wrong and even dangerous to trust your life and health to random people! And people have no other choice if they need to go. And why the administration of the bus station, instead of expanding, on the contrary, reduces its routes. And there is no need to talk about unprofitability, just look at how many so-called "taxi drivers" are standing on the square, I'm not talking about Internet orders in various applications. And if there were enough bus trips, few people would turn to them. Because you're sitting in the square waiting for him to get a full car, when ordering online, you're also waiting for him to pick you up, and then the rest of the city, and then they rush at unlimited speed, not thinking about the safety of their passengers ...
No, it's better to be on schedule and with a proven driver Even if the trip itself is a little longer, according to experience, it still turns out faster and you spend less nerves on indefinite waiting... Not to mention the cost
We have made repairs, it has become more modern, we have put an elevator, it is especially pleasant, we used to climb the stairs with suitcases.And now it's beautiful.It would be good if an inexpensive cafe would be opened, otherwise there is nowhere to eat, and there is a cafe there, it is expensive, not everyone can afford it
A modern bus station in Petropavlovsk. Comfortable, clean, there is a cozy cafe for travelers to have a snack. There is free Wi-Fi, but only for Kazakhstani SIM cards.
