Transport fares up

The Department of Road Transport and Safety has announced an increase in public transport fares with effect from September 1. This development falls on top of the two percent Value Added Tax adjustment earlier this year.

The fares increased again following a price adjustment in 2008 when there was a reduction due to stabilised fuel prices.

A shared taxi will go up from P3.20 per person to P3.50.
