New Juaben South Assembly orders transport operators to reverse unapproved fare hikes, threatens sanctions
The Assembly stressed that the directive takes immediate effect, warning that any transport operator found charging unapproved fares from Wednesday, August 12, 2026, will be sanctioned accordingly.
In a press release dated August 12, 2026, the Assembly said it had consulted with transport unions and urged all commercial transport operators to comply with the existing arrangement and desist from charging fares that have not been approved.
The Assembly has therefore called on transport operators to adhere strictly to the agreed fares and cautioned commuters to report operators who violate the directive to the appropriate authorities.
