Kyiv’s iconic funicular halts after city-wide blackout disrupts travel
Kyiv's historic funicular, a vital link between Upper Town and Podil districts, has temporarily ceased operations. The shutdown occurred on November 8 following a city-wide power outage. The funicular, a popular mode of transport among locals and tourists alike, came to a halt due to the loss of electricity. The city's cable car traffic system, managed by the local director of Kyiv, was affected by the blackout. Repairs are underway, and service is anticipated to resume once the power supply is fully restored. The funicular's closure has disrupted travel between Upper Town and Podil, but authorities are working diligently to restore operations as soon as possible.
