In the framework of the programme of studying the meridional section of the Galaxy (MEGA) the catalogue of stellar data (about 26500 stars) had been compiled and investigated. The main part of the catalogue consist of the proper motions of stars with respect to the galaxies. The stellar kinematical characteristics in the direction of the galactic rotation, the parameters of velocity ellipsoid and the relation between kinematical, spatial and chemical properties of stellar populations have been determined.
