AMMAN — General-Director of the Land Transport Regulatory Commission Tareq Habashneh said that a special committee
is studying and reviewing public transport fares in light of Tuesday’s fuel
hike, Ammon News reported.
Habashneh noted that the committee’s recommendations
will be submitted to the Council of Ministers in the next couple of days in
order to make the proper decision.
He added that fuel makes 35 percent of the public
transportation’s running costs and that the profit margin must be maintained
for drivers and owners of the public transport vehicles while providing
services to the public.
Habashenh said that public transport fares have remained the
same since 2018, however, there is an urgent need to review and examine the
impact of the latest increase on fares in general.
