HOW TO GET TO THE CONGRESS SITE
ATTENTION! Due to reparation at the Novosibirsk hydroelectric station, the only way to cross the bridge is by feet.
Therefore, if you arrive at the Tolmachevo airport, the better way to get to Akademgorodok is to go through the center of Novosibirsk.
You can choose bus 122, 722, or 1122 to get to the main railway station or bus 711 or 1211 to get to the main bus station of Novosibirsk.
At the railway station, take a (small) bus 15 or 1015.
At the bus station, take bus 8, 1022, 1075, 1015, or 15.
If you prefer not to go through the center of Novosibirsk, take bus 808 at Tolmachevo and go to the levee. Next, you cross the bridge by feet (do not forget to collect you baggage!) and take bus 23 or 41. Be careful: buses 23 and 1223 are not the same! The terminal station of bus 808 in Akademgorodok is near the hotel for morning departures (at 4:40 and 5:40) only. All other departures are from the hydroelectric station.
If the above is too complex for you, just take a taxi. This will cost about 300 roubles.
If you arrive at the Severnyi airport, take trolleybus 2 to the main railway station or bus 711 or 1211 to the main bus station.
If you arrive at the Seyatel’ railway station, take bus 7 or 28.
In any case, get off at the terminal station, called “Tsvetnoi proezd”. It remains to walk to the hotel or to the NSU along Vesennii proezd, which will take less than 5 minutes.
