Abstract
As a result of the acceleration of the urbanization process, the increase of megalopolis cities, and the growth of the population,
the demand and need for public transport is increasing every year. This, in turn, requires improving the quality of public transport
service, improving its culture, adapting it to today's times and conditions. The President of the Republic of Uzbekistan told the
officials of the field to fundamentally reform public transport, to develop public transport in the districts and cities of our country,
to meet the needs of the regions, to organize transport infrastructure, to take a scientific approach to transport and logistics issues,
in particular, to study foreign experience, to hire modern personnel for the field. set the tasks of training and recruitment. Public
transport is essential for ensuring equitable access to transportation, reducing traffic congestion, protecting the environment,
promoting social interactions, shaping urban development, and providing economic benefits. It is crucial to invest in and
prioritize the development of high-quality public transport systems to address our transportation needs sustainably and improve
the quality of life for individuals and communities. This article presents tasks on improving the public transport system in
Andijan agro-development are presented.
