Public transport fares will see a 15% increase across the country, beginning Thursday April 6, 2017, the Road Transport Operators has announced.
In a release dated Monday April 3, 2017, the group said: “In line with the Administrative Instrument on public transport fares, the Road Transport Operators have reviewed the prices of the various elements that go into running of commercial transport services and have increased transport fares by 15%. The Road Transport Operators have therefore issued new road transport fares.
The release said the new fares will affect intra-city (trotro), inter-city (long distance), and taxi services.
It asked its members to display the new fares at the various terminals to avoid “confrontations” with the travelling public.
