Under the Ministry of Development's initiative «Shoulder to Shoulder: United Communities», Odesa has acquired 27 new buses (from Kropyvnytskyi, Mykolaiv, Lviv, and Mariupol community).

The city continues to operate existing social routes that mirror the patterns of urban electric transport.
 
Additionally, a new route has been introduced: «Freedom Avenue – Architect Street» (1 unit). This route replicates tram line No. 27.

On January 6, Odesa welcomed another 5 buses from Zhytomyr as part of the «Shoulder to Shoulder» project. These are articulated buses that will be donated to the city.

They will undergo testing soon and will be added to the city's existing routes alongside other community transport.
