The main forms of public transport used in Dnipro are trams, buses and electric [[Trolleybus|trolley buses]]. In addition to this there are a large number of taxi firms operating in the city, and many residents have private cars.

The city's municipal roads also suffer from the same funding problems as the trams, with many of them in a very poor technical state.{{citation needed|date=July 2013}} It is not uncommon to find very large potholes and crumbling surfaces on many of Dnipro's smaller roads. Major roads and highways are of better quality. In the early [[2010s]] the situation was improving, with a number of new used trams bought from the German cities of [[Dresden]] and [[Magdeburg]],<ref>{{cite web |author= |date=19 January 2011 |title=К нам привезли новые старые трамваи – Днепропетровск |trans-title=New old trams were brought to us – Dnepropetrovsk |url=http://gorod.dp.ua/news/60242 |access-date=12 March 2013 |publisher=Gorod.dp.ua |language=ru}}</ref> and a number of roads, including [[Otto Schmidt|Schmidt]] Street (now [[Stepan Bandera]] Street<ref name="DniproSBS7368431"/>) and Moskovsky Street (now [[Vladimir II Monomakh|Volodymyr Monomakh]] Street<ref name="APPEAL№220666DCC">{{cite web |date=6 January 2022 |title=Звернення №220666 Водопостачання: Відсутність водопостачання за межами будинку вулиця Володимира Мономаха (Московська) 12а, Дніпро |trans-title=APPEAL №220666 Water supply: No water supply outside the house Volodymyr Monomakh Street (Moskovsky) 12a, Dnipro |url=https://hotline.dniprorada.gov.ua/contactcenter/request/220666 |access-date=17 November 2022 |website=Dnipro City Council |language=Ukrainian}}</ref>) were being reconstructed with modern road-building techniques.<ref>{{cite web |date=15 August 2011 |title=Ремонт дорог в Днепропетровске на 16 августа 2011 года |trans-title=Road repairs in Dnepropetrovsk on August 16, 2011 |url=http://34.ua/news/economic/transport/roads/85-remont-dorog-v-dnepropetrovske-na-16-avgusta-2011-goda.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130505093610/http://34.ua/news/economic/transport/roads/85-remont-dorog-v-dnepropetrovske-na-16-avgusta-2011-goda.html |archive-date=5 May 2013 |access-date=12 March 2013 |publisher=34.ua |language=ru}}</ref>
