Passengers will, from Saturday, May 24, 2025, pay less for transport services.
This follows a 15% reduction in fares announced by the Ghana Private Road Transport Union.
The move was influenced by the recent reduction in the Prices of Petroleum products at the pumps.
A press statement, issued on Wednesday, May 21, jointly signed by Emmanuel Ohene Yeboah, General Secretary of the Ghana Road Transport Coordinating Council, and Godfred Adulbire, General Secretary of the Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU), emphasized that the fare adjustment aligns with the "Administrative Arrangement on Public Transport Fares," taking into account the observed reductions in petroleum prices during this period.
The revised fares will apply to Shared Taxis, Inter-City ( TRO-TRO), Inter City ( Long Distance), and Haulage vehicles.
The operators urged commercial transport providers to adhere to the new fares and display them prominently at their loading terminals.
"We kindly request all operators, commuters, and the general public to cooperate fully to ensure the successful implementation of the revised fares," the statement further advised.
