Frustration and outcry have risen among commuters in the Greater Banjul Area as they face the consequences of soaring transportation fees. People are feeling the strain on their household income as the Ministry of Transport, Works and Infrastructure has implemented an increase in fares across major routes such as Brufut, Sukuta, Tallinding, Brikama, and Yundum. Daily travel expenses have risen, causing great inconvenience for passengers.
Ebrima Camara, a resident of Brufut, shared his disappointment at the situation, stating that his budget has been greatly impacted by the rising fares. He now has to shell out close to D100 on a daily basis for transportation, causing added financial burden.
