COVID cases are increasing daily, but the
Department of Transport says public transportation operators, including
drivers and conductors along with travelling commuters are not adhering
to the Regulations.
A release says "Bus drivers, conductors and passengers are not wearing
their masks when travelling in the buses, or in some instances, they
are not properly worn. It has also been reported that in some instances
sanitization of hands or of the buses is not being done."
And now the department of Transport is turning to commuters for help.
They are asking the public to report on any of the infractions such as
commuters, drivers and conductors not wearing masks, buses not properly
sanitized, persons not doing proper handwashing prior to boarding a
bus, and lack of social distancing.
The public can make reports to the Department of Transport via WhatsApp
at 610-8163 and 626-2658. The DOT requests that the numbers be used
specifically to report incidents related to COVID-19 and the safety of
the commuting public.
