Business | The Bangkok Metropolitan Transit Authority (BMTA) is the agency responsible for public transportation in the BMR, most notably the public buses. (references) | |
BMTA said that it would consider transferring more routes to private bus services this year in a bid to reduce its accumulated debt of TB 20 billion. (references) | ||
This project was funded by the central government about 5 years ago, but there has been a lot of problems concerning the maintenance of these because they break down often and BMTA do not have enough trained mechanics to deal with this. Moreover the Petroleum Authority of Thailand (PTT) is unable to provide the quality of natural gas needed to run these buses. (references) | ||
Travel | Thailand | The BMTA sky train began operation in December 1999 providing services for commuters in two of Bangkok's most congested business districts, Silom and Sukhumvit . Rates vary, depending on zone and distance but the BTS is an excellent alternative to the long traffic jams, if your destination is within the areas serviced by the system. (references) |
