These old buses will be replaced by 20-seat minibuses that will service 10 new routes in Bangkok by the end of this year. (Bangkok Post file photo)The Department of Land Transport (DLT) will call for bids to operate 10 new Bangkok bus routes to be launched this year using 20-seat minibuses. The eight routes were part of the DLT’s plan to improve 269 bus routes in the capital. Several complaints were posted on “Rotmaethai” Facebook page, with some saying people who do not understand English letters would be confused. “I think that in five or ten years Thailand will have intelligent signboards, so do not worry about the English letters,” he said.
