A joint Task Force has been set up to ensure compliance of existing transport fares while leadership of the Road Transport Operators continue its engagement with government to determine new fares following the introduction of new taxes on petroleum products.
The Task Force is made up of personnel from the Ghana Road Transport Coordinating Council (GRTCC), PROTOA and the Ghana Private Roads Transport Union (GPRTU) of TUC among others.
They will be working in collaboration with the security agencies to visit the various bus terminals in the country to ensure compliance of existing transport fares.
The formation of the Task Force was spurred by the recent announcement of a 20% increment in transport fares by some commercial road transport operators including the Truth Drivers Union, Concern Drivers Association and some others without recourse to the law and laid down principles.
