Public transport services, including trains, will be limited on Wednesdays following the Government’s decision to declare the day a public holiday amid the prevailing fuel crisis.
Cabinet Spokesperson and Minister Nalinda Jayatissa said the measure was part of broader efforts to reduce fuel consumption.
Meanwhile, the Secretary to the Ministry of Education has advised all educational institutions to use fuel sparingly.
Accordingly, schools and other educational institutions have been instructed to avoid vehicle parades and postpone school educational trips until further notice as part of the measures introduced to manage fuel usage.
