Transport fares to go up Monday
Business
Fuel prices have gone up consistently since the beginning of the year
The Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) will, on Monday, 24 October 2022, announce new transport fares across the country.
The Head of Communications of the Union, Mr Abass Ibrahim Moro, said this in an interview with the media.
He said the union was earlier targeting a 30 to 40 per cent increase in transport fares in parity with the recent rise in the prices of petroleum products.
He assured the public that the fare hikes will be reasonable.
Petrol has been selling at around GH¢13.10 while diesel is selling at GH¢15.99 at the pumps since Sunday.
Some analysts expect further increases as the demand for gas and fuel increases as winter approaches.
