Manas International Airport plans to organize the operations of two official taxi services and regulate the activities of private carriers. This was announced by Manasbek Samidinov, Chairman of the Board of OJSC Airports of Kyrgyzstan, during the "Open Cabinet" media project on "Birinchi Radio".
Control via smart parking
According to the company head, the implementation of an intelligent parking system has provided the administration with the technical capability to track the movement of all vehicles. This will help regulate the taxi flow, including those operating without official status.
After the launch of the smart parking system, we can already monitor the entire taxi flow. There will be official taxis, 2 operators who will serve passengers
Samidinov identified unregulated transport as one of the main challenges. Many drivers operating near the airport reside in nearby villages and do not comply with established rules.
Those taxi drivers who engage in unregulated activities at the airport mostly live here, in the neighboring villages. We explained to them that they cannot work this way; all activities must be carried out within the framework of the law. We will bring order
