Every large street in the city is served by at least one bus route. Many of these routes are doubled by the trolleybus routes. Also every large street of Moscow has trolley wires over it. Moscow buses and trollebuses go since 5:30 AM till 1:00 AM. The average distance between the bus-stops is about 150 metres or 500 feet. www.anaga.ru/travel/moscowtrans.htm#1 As Metro stations outside the city center are far apart in comparison to other cities, up to 4 kilometers (2.5 mi), an extensive bus network radiates from each station to the surrounding residential zones. Buses and trolleybuses don't seem to operate on a fixed schedule, but there are always plenty of them around. One trip costs 28 rubles, if you pay to a bus (or trolleybus) driver. However it is more convenient and cheaper to buy it in the booths, located at the bus-stops or near the Metro stations. In this case it costs 24 rubles. It is also possible to get a multi-ride card in those booths, and each trip would be cheaper. Tickets for bus, trolleybus and tram are unified. How much the do the tickets cost
