The Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) has dismissed concerns about competition following the introduction of reduced fares by operators of the newly launched electric buses in the country.
The electric buses, introduced to revamp Ghana's transportation system, promise to cut public transport costs by 40 to 50 per cent while providing an eco-friendly mobility alternative.
On Wednesday, November 27, the government unveiled an initial fleet of 100 electric buses for Metro Mass Transit Limited (MMT), marking a significant step toward modernizing public transport.
Despite this development, GPRTU remains confident in the resilience of its operations.
