Many a contemporary megalopolis suffers from the abundance of cars and people. Moscow is no exception, and its endless traffic jams have long become notorious. But let me now introduce you to another kind of queue: people waiting for a bus to go home. For the second week running we’ve been for a rare treat near the district where I live. It was next to impossible to get on a bus a week ago: I spent 40 minutes waiting for one of the two buses to arrive. One never arrived; three buses from another route went past the bus stop to their bus terminal.
The photos have been taken just now, at 19:40-19:48. Normally at this time buses run regularly, and the traffic density gets lower. Instead those who don’t want to wait are trying to jam themselves into a rather tiny bus, and there’s also a massive queue of those who are waiting for a passenger van.
