This move is part of a larger plan initiated on July 10, which aims to deploy 96 public transport buses across Lebanon.
Minister Hamiye emphasized the significance of this new line for citizens, stating, “This line is crucial for our citizens to efficiently reach Baabda and complete their necessary transactions. It marks the beginning of a broader initiative to enhance shared transportation across Lebanon.”
He also announced plans to expand the network, revealing, “The timetable for the opening of additional shared transport lines is set. Soon, we will be launching lines to Chtaura, Baalbek, Sidon, Tyre, and Tripoli.”
Governor of Mount Lebanon Mohammad Makkawi underscored the broader impact of this initiative, noting, “Expanding the shared transport network is a necessity, which will enable citizens from various regions to benefit. In these delicate economic times, such initiatives are not just beneficial but essential.”
Ziad Nasr, Director General of Shared Transportation, detailed plans for distributing the new lines and expanding services to meet the growing demand for affordable and reliable public transport in the country.
