The company expects passengers to travel throughout the day on short routes not longer than 300 kilometres, Sanyalak said. Currently, the Transport Company operates 15 northern bus routes, 19 northeastern bus routes, 15 southern bus routes and nine bus routes to Laos. He said passengers can book tickets in advance on its website www.transport.co.th, e-ticket application of the company and from counter services. He added that the Transport Company had not yet raised the fare for its buses even though the Central Land Transport Committee had allow a fare hike of five satang (0.05 baht) per kilometre distance. Sanyalak said the current fares would be in use until September 30 to help people bear the cost and the company would also provide 5 per cent discount to passengers who register for Transport Company membership cards.
