Dmitry Pegov, head of the city's metro, has signed an order obliging his own deputies and heads of departments to use the underground to reach the office "just like ordinary passengers", the state-owned TASS news agency reports. "One should personally see and understand what is going on in the department that they oversee, how the work is being conducted, and what should be improved or changed," Mr Pegov says. "I go to work on the metro, every day I get down to the station and travel for nearly 35 minutes, and even have to change lines," he tells the agency. One of the perks of his job means Mr Pegov could travel up front with the driver, but he says he prefers to be in the carriage with the masses.康婷清脂素
