The union is sounding the alarm because of the critical situation "Karelavtotrans"

The state unitary enterprise Karelavtotrans, which is responsible for passenger bus transportation in the region and manages the Petrozavodsk bus station, is on the verge of bankruptcy. This was stated by the Chairman of the Karelian branch of the trade union of motor vehicles and road facilities Sergey Solovyov during budget public hearings. According to him, the company is experiencing economic difficulties.

According to Sergey Solovyov, in the first six months of this year, eighteen republican enterprises showed a negative financial result, and Karelavtotrans was among them. However, if we consider the data for nine months, I would describe the situation at the enterprise as frankly crisis. With revenue of 214 million rubles, losses reached 63 million, and accounts payable is 62 million. These figures clearly indicate bankruptcy. We are faced with the reality that paying taxes for November and December becomes impossible.

He urged the authorities to actively engage in the process of finding solutions to save the enterprise. Sergey Solovyov also noted that Karelavtotrans needs to receive a subsidy next year.
