E-tickets for all Mirpur buses from today

All buses on Dhaka's Mirpur route will operate under e-ticketing from today.

Bangladesh Road Transport Owners Association General Secretary Khandkar Enayet Ullah disclosed this information at a press conference at the association office yesterday. Buses of 30 companies will run on the Mirpur route under e-ticketing from tomorrow, he said.

A total of 60 buses will operate in Dhaka from January 31, 2023, while 97 buses of Dhaka and its suburbs will run under e-ticketing from February 28 next year.

That means the operations of 5,650 buses in Dhaka and its suburbs will be brought under system by February 28.

Enayet said, "We have been receiving complaints for a long time regarding the collection of additional fare. Our association has been working for a long time to eliminate that. From September 22, the e-ticketing system was introduced to stop the collection of extra fare."
