Officials in Safaga have told the city's intercity bus stand to keep to the set fare tariff and to display it clearly where passengers can see it.
The instruction came during a field tour of Safaga by Diaa El-Din Qotb, assistant secretary-general of the Red Sea Governorate, and Mohamed El-Banna, head of Safaga city. They also pressed for the stand to be kept clean and to run on a regular schedule.
The governorate's account does not give the tariff figures, and it does not say whether drivers had been charging more than the set rate.
The tour took in the new corniche in front of the Marine Industries School, where work is continuing, and waste collection in several parts of the city.
It ended at the new Safaga–Qena road by the Kilo 5 buildings. Officials said they were assessing the site before drawing up a proposal to improve traffic there. No design, cost or timetable has been announced.
