{UAH} ‘Taxis must carry only two passengers per row’ – IGP Ochola Orders

Uganda Police Force has issued new guidelines to public transport operators throughout the country.

Following President Museveni's directive, Police has now issued guidelines to be followed by all managers of public transport means.

"Taxis must carry only two passengers per row. The Inspector General of Police gave these orders and traffic officers must enforce them,"Enanga said.

Taxi operators have also been asked to provide facilities that would see passengers wash hands before entering taxis on top of regularly disinfecting their vehicles.

Consequently, according to the new measure, taxis will now carry nine instead of 14 passengers whereas buses will carry 59 passengers.

However, taxi operators might increase fares to fill the gap of the six passengers following the directive.
