YBS bus lines from 16 companies will run during Thingyan from 13 April to 16 April, and all bus lines will resume on 17 April, the Myanmar New Year Day, according to Yangon Region Public Transport Committee (YRTC).
YRTC has planned to make sure to provide bus services during Myanmar Water Festival days in order to make the public more convenient.
The 16 YBS companies will provide passenger transport service by 1,308 buses from 61 bus lines on 13 April and by 938 buses from 57 bus lines on 14, 15, and 16 April. On 17 April, Myanmar New Year Day, all bus lines from 21 bus companies will resume, and ten buses from the No 63 bus line by Thet Yin Aung Company will provide free bus service.
“We always instruct buses that run during Thingyan to drive safely and not to drink,” said YRTC joint secretary U Lyan Cing Mang.
Twenty-one YBS companies provide bus services by 131 bus lines with about 3,800 buses to commute about 1.5 million passengers daily on a regular basis. — MT/ZS/ED
