The Ho Chi Minh City Public Transport Management Center will increase about 1,048 buses for 17 its routes to meet travel demand during New Year holidays.
If the number of passengers suddenly increase on the routes, the transport center will add more buses at the Eastern and Western Bus Stations on December 30 and 31.
It is estimated that the number of passengers will increase during New Year holidays as state employees, workers and students get three-day off, from December 31, 2016 to January 2, 2017.
