Transport fares to go up by 15%

The Transport Operators Association of Ghana has announced a 15% increase in transport fares, effective Monday, July 22, 2024.

The association attributed the fare hike to the recent surge in petroleum prices and prevailing economic hardships.

Several oil marketing companies have adjusted their prices at the pumps, with Shell increasing its petrol price from GHȼ14.80 to GHȼ15.10 per litre and diesel from GH¢14.92 to GHȼ15.25 per litre.

The association urged the public to take note of the increment and cooperate with transport operators.

The Concerned Drivers Association of Ghana (C-DAG) and the True Drivers Union have endorsed the announcement.
