Bangkok express bus trial hits commuter confusion
A trial of limited-stop express buses on 24 Bangkok routes launched Monday, but poor communication left many commuters confused as buses passed stops. The Bangkok Mass Transit Authority (BMTA) aims to speed up rush-hour journeys, with normal fares applying, but passenger feedback has been mixed. The BMTA has opened a feedback channel but hasn't specified trial duration.
What this means for you
- Residents and commuters in Bangkok using city buses may find some buses skip their usual stops during rush hours.
- The trial runs during morning (6am-8am departures) and evening (4pm-6pm departures) peak times.
- Passengers can submit feedback via the BMTA's website channel.
