October 27: Professional holiday of auto and city passenger transport workers

Professional holiday

Every year on October 27, Russia celebrates the Day of the Automobile and Urban Passenger Transport Worker. This professional holiday has been celebrated since 2012, established by the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of October 1, 2012 No. 1323 "On the Day of the Automobile and Urban Passenger Transport Worker."

History of the holiday

The history of public transport in Russia begins in the 19th century, when horse-drawn trams appeared on the streets of Russian cities. The first bus in Russia appeared in 1906 in the city of Armavir. The first trolleybus appeared in Moscow in 1933. Automobile and city passenger transport is an important part of the infrastructure of any modern city. Every day, millions of people use the services of buses, trolleybuses, trams and metro. Thanks to the work of transport workers, residents of cities can quickly and comfortably get to their destination. On this holiday, we thank all the workers of automobile and urban passenger transport for their hard work and dedication. We wish you good health, happiness and well-being! Happy professional holiday!
