About 90 per cent of the private buses will operate island wide from today (15), revealed President of the Ceylon Private Bus Owners Association Gemunu Wijeratne speaking to media yesterday (14).
“Arrangements in particular have been made to start schools from Monday on all five days of the week. We are planning to run 100 per cent buses on Monday, at least 90 per cent. Also, school buses have been deployed in the Western Province. We are working to start the school bus service in other areas at the time of starting and ending of schools under regular fares on the routes. So, we think that we have the capacity to restore the private bus service and public passenger service from Monday,” he said.
