Trolleybuses are the quintessential transport in Sukhum, featuring all walks of life on their seats. With tickets at RUB5 [$0,08], they are also the cheapest means of transportation, the only one that people on low incomes like pensioners can afford. Challenges are multiple - bad roads, frequent power cuts, etc. - and the costs outnumber the revenue. Yet, budget transport is vital to the city. The route of trolleybus number 3 is the most popular and crowded - these are its people.
