Mayor Trukhanov emphasized that the issue of staff shortages due to mobilization is felt not only in the transportation sector. It is also worth mentioning that the mayor plans to run again for the post of head of Odesa.Thus, the lack of public transport drivers in Odesa is becoming a serious problem, which is explained by mobilization in the Armed Forces and a shortage of personnel in the city.
