FROM THE ORIGINAL STORY
The shortage of taxi drivers on the Russian market may grow to 130,000 by the end of 2024, forecasts Anton Petrakov (Антон Петраков), director for government relations at Yandex Taxi (Яндекс Такси). A year earlier, at the end of 2023, Yandex (Яндекс) analysts estimated the gap at 80,000 drivers. The deficit is now the defining constraint of Russia 's urban passenger transport, and it is tightening exactly when seasonal demand peaks.
