The government has stated that the ongoing statewide road traffic crackdown on PSVs, personal automobiles, and other commercial vehicles, which was to start today, has been stopped.
By facilitating business and people's travel, the government recognized that the transportation sector is a vital aspect of the country's transportation sector.
This prompted the postponement of the public transportation strike, which was supposed to commence on Wednesday, according to a statement issued by the National Police Service (NPS) on Wednesday.
"The public transportation strike that was supposed to start today, March 16th, 2022, has been postponed. The multi-agency crackdown on non-compliant public transportation vehicles has been temporarily halted," Bruno Shioso, a police spokesperson, said
"It was also agreed that the public transportation federation will be represented in future multi-agency activities."
The operation began on February 28 and targeted individuals with unrestricted license plates as well as vehicles with foreign plates but no foreign motor vehicle licenses.
Drivers of taxi cars such as the Voxy, Sienta, and Probox types were also targeted, as were operators of unlawful Public Service Vehicles (PSVs), 'usiku sacco' operators, and drivers of illegal PSVs.
