The police service was fully transformation, the work of which had to be adapted to the needs of a strongly scared city and significantly increased population. Fires were still a misfortune of the city. One of the measures for the early extinguishing of fires was the appointment of an incentive award of the fire team, the first emergence of the emergence of the fire.

In St. Petersburg, the beginning of the XIX century movement in the city center was very lively. One of the travelers who visited the city, he recorded in his impressions that "Eave carriages in St. Petersburg is much more numerous than in the largest cities of Europe, the streets are forced by them." The city had more than three hundred special standings - stock exchanges, as they called then for cabidors.

According to the preserved statistics in St. Petersburg in 1815 there were 8102 state-owned, 7519 philistine and 2476 percircuit horses. The streets were jumping along the streets, walked carriages, decorated with coat of arms, sickle strollers and trees, English crashes with umbrellas, Duraza, cabriolets, phaetons, rules, tarantays. Immediately next to them, they rolled the top carts and trucks. In winter, Sano, Sanok and Salazki cried everywhere. There were no pedestrian walkways, and therefore, moving the street, it was necessary to be very careful - that looked at the wheels of some straggle. The cabings were usually from the fortress peasants who came to the city to earn money for the lifts. From the cabers required knowledge of the diplomas so that they could be the name of the street and the house number read. But the requirement was observed with difficulty - there were few competent among the peasants. The passage on the excrement was expensive - 80 kopecks. Approximately the same amount was the daily earnings of a small official. Therefore, the townspeople preferred to walk.

Since the summer of 1830, "Urban carriers, famous in Paris called Omnibus, appeared in St. Petersburg, for delivering poor, that is, the numerous part of our public," with which it was possible to attend country places for a small fee. The Omnibus office opened on the Nevsky Prospect for Anichkov Bridge in the House of the merchant Minayev. Omnibuses went on three routes: from the Kazan Bridge to the Cross Island, from the Kazan Bridge to the Old Village and from the Duma to the end of the new village. Represented by Omnibuses big carriages harnessed by a four horses. 6 people were placed in the carriage on seating places, as many placed on the imperial.

People wealthy, having their departure, neither by Omnibus, did not use the excreeders. The beauty of horses, crew and harness was a subject of special care, and often horses, carriages, kucher, Foretor was worth a lot of money. We went to St. Petersburg very quickly, which was noticed by Gogol. The distances were large, the streets were cobbled, so from the carriage "there was a great strength or permanent supervision of its state" Nekrylova A. F. Russian folk city holidays, entertainment and spectacle. End of XVIII - early XX century. - SPb.: ABC - Classic, 2004. - C.107. Kareny Master's business knew their work and earned a state.

Not less than crews on the streets, in St. Petersburg on rivers and canals there were various boats. Bridges in the city lacked, the floodplain bridges were filmed into rapid weather, and then the message was stopped between the shores. The city had more than 30 carriage. For the provision charged the fee for the dachshund. Military, officials ("civil servants", we would say) and Okhtinsky carpenters from the board were released. In addition to carriage boats on the Neva under the singing of rowers or horny music smoothly slipped the walking vessels of rich citizens, then gold-plated, then upholstered by velvet, then covered with silk tents. The rowers had special clothes. For example, the rowers are "Gondoliers" - Prince Yusupov was dressed in a cherry blossom of jackets and hats with feathers. Singing rowing boats was one of the favorite entertainment of Petersburgers.

For residents of the capital, very important events were freezing and autopsy of the Neva, which to some extent changed the life of the capital. During the freezing of the Neva in the fall, as well as during the opening of the river in the spring for some time - sometimes for several days, and sometimes for several weeks - a message between the left shore - the Admiralty side and the right-handed - Vasilyevsky Island, St. Petersburg and the Vyborg side "to the extreme annoyance of the public. " As for the timing of freezing or opening the Neva, there has always been a lot of sense, disputes that accurate to the "Books" - betting. But when the Neva "got up", looked through ice on the ice on sleds or on foot.

But in the article of the magazine "Son of the Fatherland" called "Stimples on the Neva" referred to the tests of the first Russian vapor vessel.

In Kronstadt, residents of the capital wishing to commit a distant sea journey could transfer from the "Bird Machine" to ships going to different ports of Russia and Europe.

In 1820, the first joint-stock company on the device passenger flights between St. Petersburg and Moscow was established. The diligeans were large, comfortable, multi-seat carriages, harvested by the four horses. Diligences immediately became popular. Many began to prefer a trip in the Diligence trip to his carriage, so because of the bad roads, the crews were very shaking, they often broke and also demanded shifts of horses at post stations. When in 1833 the construction of the highway between the two capitals was completed, this type of transport became the usual way to move from one city to another. Soon, the diligeans from St. Petersburg were sent to Revel, Riga, Tsarskoye Village.
