The newly unveiled buses have been registered, insured, and inspected by safety regulators. They are slated for immediate dispatch to high-demand commuter corridors nationwide. Prof. Opoku-Agyemang said that an efficient public transport architecture is an absolute prerequisite for sustainable national development. She commended the leadership and technical staff of MMTL, led by the Managing Director, Mr Kale Caesar, and extended state gratitude to the Ministry of Transport and its corporate partners.
