For rail travel, Vodaphone Ukraine is conducting a pilot project with the 35 km Boryspil Airport Express to determine cost for high speed internet coverage on Ukraine’s main rail lines. With about 10,000 km of main lines to cover and 3,000 passenger cars to equip with internet, public investment will have to complement investments by the three mobile operators, Olga Ustinova, general director of Vodafone Ukraine, told reporters Tuesday. For road and rail, she said, Ukraine’s three mobile providers – lifecell, Kyivstar and Vodaphone – plan to finance about one third of the mobile internet cost.
