NEW BUSES' SERVICE * Namibia - City of Windhoek to Expand Bus Service
Windhoek,Namibia -All Africa (Washington,DC,USA)/New Era, by Desie Heita -20 May 2008: -- The City of Windhoek will expand its passenger service to include white-collar commuters amid escalating fuel prices... Currently, the municipality buses cater for the blue-collar workers and students who cannot afford the more expensive modes of public transport... The bus fare is N$5 compared to the N$7 taxi fare because the City of Windhoek subsidises the fare by about 60 percent... The blue-collar workers, scholars and students constitute between 20 and 25 percent of the passenger transport market in Windhoek. This translates into 8000 passengers daily on weekdays...
