The Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) is considering raising transport fares. This may happen if fuel prices increase as projected by COMAC. The union stated that any fare hike would be done reasonably.
Fuel prices have been stable for some time. This allowed the GPRTU to avoid increasing fares in the past. The current situation is changing due to new predictions.
COMAC has made new forecasts about fuel prices. These forecasts suggest a significant rise in the cost of fuel.
The GPRTU explained that the recent stability in pump prices helped them manage costs. However, the projected adjustments by COMAC are expected to impact their operations.
The union has not yet set a date for a potential fare increase. They are closely monitoring the fuel price situation.
