Following the hike in fuel prices, the Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) has revised long-distance bus fares. The new fare schedule incorporates tolls for relevant bridges, ferries, expressways, and flyovers alongside the per-kilometer fare.

According to the new list, the per-kilometer fare for long-distance buses has been raised from Tk 2.23 to Tk 2.40. Similarly, the per-kilometer fare for buses and minibuses operating within the Dhaka and Chattogram metropolitan areas has increased from Tk 2.53 to Tk 2.70.

The BRTA’s revised fare structure includes separate calculations for 51-seater and 40-seater buses. For routes involving the use of bridges, ferries, expressways, or flyovers, the applicable tolls have been added to the base fare.

For buses using the Gulistan-Jatrabari Flyover, a toll of Tk 7 per passenger for 51-seater buses and Tk 9 per passenger for 40-seater buses has been added.
