Inter-provincial bus company Transport Co has said it is strictly implementing measures to contain the spread of Covid-19 in a bid to gain confidence among travellers.

 

Manote Saichuto, acting president of Transport Co, said every step is being taken to monitor the Covid-19 situation closely.

 

“In line with Transport Minister Saksayam Chidchob's policy, the company has instructed officials at all bus terminals nationwide to strictly implement measures to contain the spread of disease," he said.

 

He added that the company has taken the following steps:

 

• Frequently touched surfaces at bus terminals such as counters, handrails and lift buttons are regularly disinfected.

 

• Several hand sanitising points have been set up inside terminals and offices.

 

• Officials are required to wear facemasks at all times and check their symptoms regularly. They are required to inform their supervisor and see the doctor immediately if they develop any symptoms.

 

• All affiliated operators are required to clean vans and buses as well as ensure the health of all personnel.

 

• Provide daily reports to the Transport Ministry.

 

• Ensure passengers wear facemasks, maintain social distancing and check in and out use the Thai Chana application.

 

He said the company will temporarily refrain from selling tickets to migrant workers.

 

"If passengers have respiratory symptoms or have visited high-risk areas, they are required to inform officials or public health personnel in their area immediately,” he added.

7-11, Lotus lek, CJ stores near my home don't even do that, local markets zero.

Big C super store have a set-up as you enter, self service temp check and sign name... everyone just walks straight past.

So much for traceability?
