>>1097051A lot of transportation in Russia is displaced by these shits. Urban, suburban, interurabn, doesn't matter.
Most Russian cities are very sprawling, not like American sprawl, but they are made of small commieblock settlements separated by nothingness. In Novosibirsk (where I live), if you live near center, you have plenty of options — metro, tram, some trolleybuses and buses. In other areas it's the 'shrutka, some busses and surburban rail which is decent but rare. So you ususally have to take the 'shrutka.
They range from very small where people aren't able to stand properly because of low ceilings but they do, to larer ones which are almost like a normal bus.
