A fractured 'Only Bus' transit to enable city buses for quick passenger transportation now stands abandoned as its fine space has been torn off by the ongoing corridor development project, to provide expanse for a cycle lane around Arat-kilo. Its fading paint and narrow-spaced highway now serve for walking, becoming a dangerous risk for pedestrian accidents. There are 650 Anbessa buses and over 8,000 minibuses operating in the capital. Long queues for transportation are a common sight in the streets. With the gradual removal of fuel subsidies and increasing population numbers, federal authorities have set the stage for further investment in public buses. Over 3,000 more buses are needed to meet the capital’s demand for public transport which stands at 54pc.
