On Jul 16, 2021

Passenger Transport State Minister Dilum Amunugama said that the National Operation Centre for Prevention of COVID- 19 Outbreak has decided to suspend all inter-provincial bus and train services until August 1.

The travel ban has been partially relaxed only to enable the public transportation of essential services workers earlier.
“But it was found that some other people other than the essential service staff were using the transport services ignoring health guidelines. That is why this decision was taken,” he added.
