Northern bus services to resume

The Transport Co will resume its inter-provincial coach services to the North and the Northeast on Monday after weeks of service suspension due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

According to a statement issued yesterday, the state-run transport company said services on seven routes to the northern provinces and nine routes to the northeastern region will resume operating.

However, southward-coach services to Surat Thani's Koh Samui, Phuket and Trang will remain suspended throughout this month and are expected to resume on June 1.

Transport Co said passengers and staff are required to observe social distancing and Covid-19 preventive measures such as having their temperatures checked before entering coach terminals and wearing masks at all times during their journeys.

Coaches, toilets and frequently touched surfaces will be regularly cleaned, according to the company.

Coaches will be parked outdoors with windows open, in the case of non-air-conditioned vehicles, for ventilation for one to two hours after each trip.

Passengers with a fever will not be allowed to travel. Passengers will be seated at least one metre apart and will be required to fill out travel/health forms prior to departure.
