The transport fleet of the Kuzbass Fuel Company has been replenished with a bus made in China
In April 2023, the fleet of passenger vehicles at the Vinogradovsky open-pit mine of JSC Kuzbass Fuel Company was replenished with a new modern Youtong bus made in China. The bus was purchased as part of an investment program for updating and replenishing the company’s non-technological transport fleet.
The flagship with a ceiling height of more than 2 meters and overall dimensions of 12 x 2.55 x 3.83 meters is designed for 50 seats.
In each of the two working shifts, miners of the Vinogradovsky open-pit mine will travel to their place of work and back in the most comfortable conditions. The new bus runs daily along the route from the village of Krasnobrodsky, as well as small settlements along the route. The car is equipped with anatomical seats with two-point seat belts, USB connectors for charging mobile devices, a media system with monitors and a Wi-Fi router. Above each pair of seats there are individual lighting and air conditioning systems, as well as personal speakers.
The bus has been certified in Russia. It is adapted to Russian operating conditions and is equipped with additional anti-corrosion protection and double glazing, heated and electrically adjustable external mirrors. The economical diesel engine of the equipment complies with the international environmental standard Euro-5, which is aimed at reducing the content of unwanted and harmful substances in exhaust gases.
– The fleet of passenger vehicles of JSC KTK numbers about 50 units. In addition to city buses, the motor depot receives rotational buses, as well as other models of non-technological transport. Equipment is updated annually as part of the investment program, – comments Igor Ustyuzhanin, head of the mining and transport department of the Kuzbass Fuel Company.
