Long distance bus operators servicing the Chipata –Lusaka route have today increased the bus fare by 20 Kwacha rebased.
This is means that passengers travelling between the Chipata-Lusaka route are now paying 150 Kwacha rebased.
A check by Breeze News found that new fare charts have been put up at some of the bus stations.
The increase in bus fares follows government’s decision to increase fuel prices two weeks ago.
The new fares come about after transport operators consulted with government through RTSA, the Road Transport and Safety Agency.
