Marshrutka fares: ~11000 BYR Blackriding in overground transport is possible. Although ticket inspectors don't wear uniform you can recognise them as they usually work in a group of 2 or 3, wear a portable video recorder and a badge with name and photo on the chest. So if you notice inspectors standing at the bus stop, just get off. They won't do anything to you. On the underground it is almost impossible to blackride as there are turnstiles there (€0both at the entrance and exit) and a person keeping order (usually together with a policeman).  There are conductors on city trains so blackriding is hardly possible.80)    == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}}
