Large Russian cities encountered traffic jams already in the 20s years of the last century. Although traffic jams from horse-drawn vehicles were seen as far back as the 17th century. To save the streets from being overloaded with vehicles, the first metro line was opened in Moscow in 1935. However, it cannot be said that this completely solved the problem, because the increase in the number of vehicles on the roads again provoked the appearance of traffic jams, but the fact that the metro made life a little easier with the simple task of getting to work is a fact, because traffic jams in the metro consist only of people and are “absorbed” much faster than cars.
