Special Bus Services Deployed to Ease Festive Travel Rush from Colombo

Date:

The Sri Lanka Transport Board (SLTB) will operate special additional bus services from tomorrow (December 24) until December 27 to accommodate increased passenger demand during the festive season.

SLTB Chairman Sajeewa Nandana Kanakarathna confirmed that extra buses will be deployed mainly for passengers travelling out of Colombo.

Speaking at a media briefing today (23), he said the decision was taken in view of the heightened demand for public transport as well as recent disruptions to train services, ensuring commuters can travel smoothly during the Christmas and year-end holidays.
