Crowds of people are waiting for public transport in the rain, and only a few manage to squeeze into the rare, overcrowded buses.
A video shows the intersection of Seifullin and Timiryazev Streets — with cars completely gridlocked up to Al-Farabi Avenue. But almost all of Almaty's streets are in the same condition, based on live traffic maps.
As expected, taxi fares have surged. A trip that used to cost 2,000 tenge now costs up to 8,000 tenge.
