November 24, 2016:
The Ministry of Works and Transport wishes to address the rumour of an immediate fare increase to PTSC customers. While PTSC General Manager, Mr. Ronald Forde this week revealed plans to approach Cabinet to approve a possible increase to fares, this intention will not result in an immediate cost increase.
In order for an official fare increase to happen, PTSC must first consult with all relevant stakeholders, including the public. While a possible increase may occur in the future, fares will not increase at this present time.
Any updates on this issue will be communicated via an official statement from the PTSC.
