Transport Operators Suspend 20% Fare Increment

The Road Transport Operators have suspended the proposed 20% transport fares increment.

This followed a meeting with the Ministry of Transport on August 6, 2025.

It cited lack of broader consultation for the decision.

In a press statement, it said, “Transport Operators following the meeting have agreed to suspend the purported 20% increment in public transport fares as a result of the lack of broader consultations on the decision.”

The transport operators have therefore agreed to maintain the implementation of the 15% reduction in public transport fares which took effect on 24th May, 2025, it noted.

“All Transport Operators are to ensure that the 15% reduction is enforced. We count on the cooperation of all Transport Operators and the General Public,” it added.
