Public transport owners are set to start the e-ticketing service for buses of 30 companies on Mirpur route in Dhaka tomorrow (Nov 13).

Khandkar Enayet Ullah, General Secretary of Bangladesh Road Transport Owners Association disclosed the matter at a press conference organised at the association office in the capital today (Nov 12).

He said buses of 30 companies will run on Mirpur route under e-ticketing from tomorrow.

Besides, the e-ticketing services will be introduced for all vehicles in Dhaka by January 31, Enayet Ullah added. 

Everyone should come under e-ticketing, the leader of transport owners said, adding that there will be no uneven competition in the e-ticketing system.

Transport workers will come under the payroll system while contractual vehicle movement will also be stopped, he said.

A central monitoring cell will be formed so that drivers cannot halt their vehicles anywhere except stoppages for passengers.
