Private bus owners will increase bus operations by 50% from Monday.
President of the Lanka Private Bus Owners’ Association Gemunu Wijeratne said inter-city buses will begin operations today to accommodate passengers returning to Colombo from their home towns.
Meanwhile, the Railways Department said a few special trains are in operation today to accommodate the increase in commuters.
However, the special New Year transportation plan that was launched by the Sri Lanka Transport Board will end tomorrow.
