Sri Lanka’s Cabinet has approved a proposal to revise bus fares following the recent increase in Diesel prices.
According to the National Transport Commission, the diesel price hike on Sunday (22) requires bus fares to be adjusted upward by 12.19%.
Based on this recommendation, the Cabinet has endorsed a proposal by the Minister of Transport to implement a fare increase of 12.19%.
The revised fares will apply to normal, semi‑luxury, luxury, and super‑luxury bus services, including those operating on expressways and highways, effective from midnight on March 23. (Newswire)
