50 per cent of all private buses will operate from tomorrow (20) revealed Chairman of the Ceylon Private Bus Owners Association Gemunu Wijeratne.

As the Energy Minister agreed to provide diesel for private buses continuously through SLTB depots, steps will be taken to operate more than 10,000 private buses, he revealed.

Wijeratne also noted that private bus operations will be increased up to 70 per cent within this week and urged the public to use public transport services instead of motor vehicles and motorbikes.
