The negligence of road services in Russia is far from a new phenomenon. Often it is because of her that traffic accidents occur. This also applies to the breakdown of traffic lights, which the authorities are in no hurry to repair. Only an active and purposeful civil society can protect itself from such arbitrariness.
Traffic Light Problems
When planning to cross the street, almost everyone came across breakdowns of a traffic light that either did not light or quickly switched and blinked. Most pedestrians at the same time prefer to simply run across and ignore what happened, forgetting that it is this failure in the future that can dramatically affect someone's life.
But do not blame people for negligence and laziness - many of them simply do not know where to call if the traffic light does not work. The answer is simple: the most popular service is 112. This system serves to provide information for the unified duty and dispatch services of municipalities. They should be engaged in the repair of traffic lights and road signs.
The traffic light does not work: where to call in the Moscow region
For Moscow, there are separate organizations that are engaged in repairing traffic lights. One of them is the traffic light department, which has its own round-the-clock line, the number of which can be found on the official website of the Moscow Transport contact center.
Other organizations
If two services are not enough, then the Moscow Region has a Center for Traffic Management (GKU TsODD) under the Road Department. They are responsible for road signs, information boards, traffic lights and so on.
Every day they accept more than 500 applications for road malfunctions, so do not be shy and think that they are not doing it. Repairing traffic lights is their direct responsibility.
Where to call if the traffic light does not work? You do not have to call - you can contact online, over the Internet. Recently, a relatively good dispatch portal "Moscow. Our city" was made in Moscow. On the website of this organization, you can leave an appeal with a message about a breakdown or malfunction of traffic lights and other road systems.
As you can see, there are many services that deal with the registration of road faults: data center, Moscow. Our city, contact center Moscow Transport and the general service 112.
A simple citizen should not have a question: where to call if the traffic light does not work? Do not be shy and be indifferent to the fate of your city and other people. Because it is an active and purposeful civil society that can make their city better.
