Tengrinews.kz - Almaty Metro has announced a change in train intervals during peak hours.
The interval between trains during morning and evening rush hours will now be reduced to 3 minutes and 6 seconds, thanks to the introduction of two additional train sets.

Metro specialists will continue to monitor passenger traffic and are prepared to adjust the schedule if necessary.
