Even he earns lot of money from the passengers balance doesn’t know how to talk.

Dear Sir,
This is to Inform that bus from kalmunai-Amparai(NA-3977) the driver took the bus suddenly while the passengers were getting on and some passengers couldnt get in the bus even there were enough space on the bus.So please kindly take action regarding this.
Dear Sir,
I would like to focus your kind attention on the unplanned nature
of the bus service in Galewela-Matale (584/585) road although it was
reformed to some extent recently.
The time given for a private bus which starts from either Galewela or Matale to reach its destination is 1 hour and 30 minutes. It is sad to say that some SLTB buses in our road are worse than the private buses. ML 107 which departs from Matale at 8.15 am in 585 take nearly 1 hour and 40 minutes which makes the buses that come after that to exceed their time as they have no passengers.
The same bus (ML 107) which departs from Matale at 2.15 pm in 585 takes 1 hour and 45 minutes to reach Galewela even though it is crowded with school children. The worst bus in our road is ML 42(NA-2921) which departs from Matale at 4.00 pm in 584. It takes 1 hour and 45 minutes, this fully crowded slow journey is tedious for the people, especially those who return from work. In addition, the bus which depparts from Galewela at 4.40 pm too takes 1 hour and 45 minutes.
I kindly request you to instruct the Matale depot to look into this matter and order all the SLTB buses to follow 1 hour and 30 minute rule. Otherwise,
please allow private buses to run at these times, because they are now used to working on time than the SLTB buses.I hope that you will take these matters into your kindconsideration. I hope that the confidentiality of these information will be safeguarded because we have to use the public transport as we
have no other means of travel.

I am from a village in Matara District. I am a Science Graduate and after 4 years of searching, I got a job in a company in Jawatte road, Colombo. My parents who are farmers in my village found a boarding house in Moratuwa so that I can travel to office. I travel by bus from Moratuwa to Colombo every day; I never get as seat because the bus is always full. What I hate is the men in the bus. They never can keep their hands and other body parts off my body. Always touching and squeezing my body all the time; some even on my private parts and breasts and everything. My brother is in the Army and he went to England for 3 week course and he brought me a full length, 1 inch thick winter coat. That is the only way I can avoid being fondled in the bus. Can’t complain to Conductor because he is also on of them who play with women. What can I do? Only the winter coat is my protection.
If your brother is military man he should ride with you in the bus and pick the bus conductor and tell him that he means business if he does not lay his hands off you. Wearing winter coats in colombo is no solution to your problems and I cannot imagine you in a winter coat riding and overcrowded bus in colombo. Petition the transport minister and get it signed by a lot of women and give the bus number so that the culprits can traced. You better make a complaint to the police station ofr the record.
Army is only for fighting tamil tiger and not perverts in buses. My brother taking law in his own hands to protect me is illegal. Transport Minister (don’t know who is he) only interest is in buying new buses and cutting ribbon and earning commis. Also, very good at renewing private bus company licence for pagawa. Who care about passenger? Most SLTB and private buses are junk yards; they are not fit to carry passenger safely but they get licence all the time. Most men of all ages travelling in buses are perverts but who cares? Only my winter coat is my protection until, one day, I collapse from heat.
Bus is Kandy to galenbidinuwa route no 42 bus number NC-ND 7365 , I am work of RDA . The bus conductor are not kind to people all man and woman having there. Respect How we travel to the bus start to travel at Kandy 10.15pm plz action with the bus. I’ll already looking you action is best of our people. Thank you .
I am office passenger going from Pitakotte to Kaduwela. Two times I had to got-down at Thalahena. Because I got in to the Bus at Pitakotte but He came to give the ticket at thalahena. And he command to get down there and he shouted that not allow to go to Kaduwela at his Bus No. is KN 0985 Panadura to Kandy time is running at 7. 45 am at pitakotte. That conductor is get some girl from koswatta to SLIIT and they can travel this bus only recognize persons. Please examine this situation for special passengers in Sri Lanka and any person can travel in CTB bus or should be privatize all CTB. However I inform this situation by meeting the Minister. Please get the action against him.
Dear Sir,
This is to Inform that bus from Kalmunai-Trincomalee (NB-8398) Eravur Depot. the driver took the bus suddenly while the passengers were getting on and some passengers couldn’t get in the bus even there were enough space on the bus, The bus conductor are not kind to people and he blaming season tickets passengers. So please kindly take action regarding this.
I am a regular user of luxury bus service via southern highway. In almost every bus they start playing so called “musical show” videos. This is a menaces to commuters who seeks peaceful journey paying high price. These videos are like choka baila full of shouting and screaming. This may be the choice of the driver and conductor but not commuters. They can play useful videos like interesting places in our country or some sentimental music to enjoy. Authorities should take steps to stop this and limit the level of the volume to avoid disturbance to commuters.
I am just a one person who uses a bus. I asked tickets from conductor of NC 3557 (a private bus) for tickets but he just ignored. And the driver of this bus also drove away the bus before l got in and nearly knocked me down.l know that there are more serious incidents than this but as a person of this society l must say that this was very unfair.There are thousands of people who’ve been treated unfairly like this.Even though people can take actions by law for this ignorant acts still they remain silent.And l would be very pleased if you add this sentence in front of buses.

These are not buses. These are trucks with uncomfortable seats. I called them cattle trucks. But it suits Sri Lanken public.
The OIC SLTB/Private bus
this is not only for your information but for your action to take as an human being ,
I dont have to mention particular bus route since i c all over sri lanka..
you provide time for buses, and set standard time, we trust you but unfortunately drivers and conductrs fail to fulfill your timings, various reasons we observe, true enough traffic ,but its all the made up stories of drivers, its them whos making the huge traffic, we are not with clay brains to not to undertand road rules just because we travel in SLTB/ PRVT buses
the morning buses are slow as ever that we can never reach office on time, and they say buses cannot run in right track, but in the evening we see the same bus only running in right and sometimes passenger cant even get down in halts even if passenger wants to get down since they dont want to take to left track to stop cos their timings.
how funny , Officers incharge hope u have parents loving ones at home , who will be looking for you to come home to get thier food, medicines, love on time , and if u take care of us and our parents. your family will have a good life with our blessings
if actions take place on the above comments of people, i will not have to , and poeple will not have to type more complaints..
think deep its your children who will follow your leadership qualities.
bad music, uncensored videos, third grade songs, uneducated conductors, traffic creating drivers,
will never bring our country a brighter future.

On 12th January 2017 at 5.30 am I boarded the Trinco – Jaffna SLTB (Trincomalee Dept) bus WP NC 0802 at Vavuniya to Travel to Kilinochchi (Ticket Ref. 77 22 301 23012). As the bus got near Kilinochchi I moved to the front to collect my bag and get off. The conductor (Mohammad Asmin) who was going towards the back asked me to move forward. So I showed him my bag and informed him that I have a bag and will take it and move forward. He recklessly pulled it out of the rack and threw it onto the bonnet. I was angered and asked him to behave in a responsible manner stating that I had a computer in the bag and he had no business to be so reckless.
The driver then demanded that he was the responsible person and that I should tell him what the problem was. When I told him that the conductor had recklessly pulled out and thrown my bag, he replied that that is what they do and that I can complain to who ever I like. I proceeded to argue with him stating that he cannot behave in such an irresponsible way as a public servant and asked him if he would remain silent if I meddled with his bus. As the argument ensured a passenger who I suspect to be another CTB employee assaulted me several times (punching me with his fist in the face) then the conductor Asmin attempted to squeeze my neck and continued to kick me until restrained by the driver and other passengers.
At this point I demanded the bus be taken to the police station but the driver and conductor demanded I get off as my ticked was only up to Kilinochchi depot junction where as the police station was the next stop. I then asked for their names and numbers which they refused. Then the passenger who assaulted me removed my bag and put it outside the bus at the request of the driver. I was verbally abused and told that I can make what ever complaint I like but that it will not affect them.
I walked a Kilometer to the Kilinochchi and made a complaint IB Ref No. CIBI 373/77 dated 2017/01/12.
I also called the SLTB Trincomalee depot manager and informed him of the incident. He has asked me to make a written complaint which I will be doing.
I am hopeful that some disciplinary action is taken against these public servants.

Dear sir
This is to inform you that while I was travelling by bus No. 255 route No. wp GQ 8535 on the date 28th February 2017 , the conductor of the bus misbehaved in most insulting manner.
I boarded the bus at 8.05 a.m- 8.35 a.m time Katubedda from Kottawa along with other passengers. It was presumed that the bus would follow its usual route. While we were half way, conductor came and asked ticket fee. Then I gave him fee of ticket. But he didn’t issue ticket for me or other passengers. And also he didn’t return my remains ticket balance. So I ask him about that. He said that he will give later. After long time I ask from him about my remains ticket balance.
Then The conductor spoke very rudely to me. It’s very hard to tolerate me. I’m lady. It’s very uncomfortable to me. Please consider this problem.
However 255 bus route is most worst bus route in the Sri Lanka. I travel so many places in Sri Lanka but I did’t ever see this like bus route. In the morning they can come from Katubedda to Kottawa. But In the evening they take one hour or more than to reach to katubedda from Kottawa. What is this nonsense.
It is highly objectionable for a public servant to behave like this. I would, therefore, request you to make an enquire and see that the conductor is given some suitable warning and punishment.
Thank You
Best Regards

After that when I get down for Kalutara I asked. He blamed me I gave u the balance, this ticket is for Dehiwala. There were a lot of crowd at the Kalutara town.
These type of guys at CTB earn blackmoney from passengers & make them asheme.
Please advise him & train how to talk to passengers respectfully.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I don’t know whether you are reading or not,if so ,did you take any action against CTB staff those who not obey the rulrs accordinly?it does seems to me you are not, because conductors never give change and their bad behaviour towards the passengers such as shouting and no respect to all age.

Kandy to Jaffna CTB Sunday 6.40pm bus (Only Jaffna Depot Buses, Not the Kandy Depot Buses) drivers & conductors illegally booking seats for their friends.
The bus don’t come to Kandy good shed bus stand directly, it goes to Peradeniya University & loading passengers from there and then only comes to Kandy bus stand although they don’t have route permit to go there.
The bus conductors are putting water bottles and saying the seat is booked.
We’re going to Jaffna & we don’t have seats.
It happened on Nov 27 & again today Dec 10.
There should be a legal booking method.
Jaffna bus depot drivers & conductors must be suspended from their duties.
Colombo to akkaraippattu bus service very poor. it was trouble to passengers. There is a separate station for akkaraippattu.

Conductor and Driver And the administration of CTB have the accountability to this meaningless action. Minister of transport don’t be foolish it’s for ur awareness.

I was travelling from Gampaha to Ja- Ela 21-11-2018 and 19-11-2018 at about 12 pm and bus conductor of the bus which was bearing registration no. WP/ND 4500 , charged excessive bus fare for travelling. bus fare from Gampaha to Ja ela is rs.38 but he charges rs. 40 .and this has happened to me all the time when i was travelling in that bus. Conducter is with this practice for all the passengers.please be kind enough to take an action against this injustice.
To whom It May Concern,
Im an undergraduate in the University of Colombo, Faculty of Law. On 4th December 2018 I was travelling from townhall to Maharaga in a private bus (pettah-athurugiriya- 1/138- 3937).
I felt very unconfortable with the talking way of the conductor when I asked for balance 20/=. He used to serve the public very rudely. I requet you to consider about this matter as soon as possible. If not another girl’s right to dignity will be violated. This is my initial step and If you take any legal or some action against his behaviour I will be very grateful for you. Thank you.
I got into a 400 bus from Wellawatte that was going to Colombo . Reg. No. ND 8670 and was almost thrown out because the bus was in such a hurry to get away. The conductor was rude and the bus was being driven very recklessly, braking all the time with people standing getting thrown around all the time. This was because there was a 101 bus from Moratuwa coming behind our bus. My stop was Bambalapitiya flats and in spite of my going up to the front and standing near the driver and telling him to stop he just kept driving on very fast without stopping at the halt. I had to keep shouting at him to stop the bus and he too was very rude acting like it was my fault that I didn’t get off at the halt. I managed to get out near Holy Family Convent Bambalapitiya only because the driver had to slow down due to traffic. I’m 67 years old and was scared I would twist or dislocate my arm trying to hang on for dear life. Please investigate and take necessary action against this kind of drivers and conductors. Thank you for your service.
Dear sir/madam,
Pettah to moratuwa route (101), bus number wp NB -7919 private bus, conductor said Colombo 03 to pettah all tickets are 20 rupees but actual price should be 15 rupees and conducter said after 10:00 PM they will give 20 rupee tickets to everyone … what is this issue please look into this ASAP …
thank you,
Malith.
Dear Sir/Madam,
The CTB bus number NC 1014 driver is an indiscreet driver. They have been given a separate bus lane, He drives the bus on the way, in the opposite direction. This is a great ailment for other drivers. As he is not allowed to go, he moves the bus to the same chariot as he himself is in the vehicals. I was struck by such a bitter, horrible experience. If my husband did not function properly we would have been a hospital or even died. I kindly request that stern action be taken by such drivers. If this is not the case, these unsettled drivers have repeatedly tried to kill innocent lives.
Please make immediate action
Thank you.
2019/01/09 WP NB-1245 this bus driver Colombo to Kandy running he stopped every bus hold and pick the people he drive the bus like crazy person hope you people take action for him
Kelaniya to pettah ctb buses never issue tickets and over charging all the time. Less than RS.5 balance is not returned. Conductors are becoming more worse than the beggers get into the buses.
Horrible service. Too loud music. Bus didn’t stop at the bus stand. When I asked the bus driver to stop, he went away without stopping and shouted at me. I want the bus driver penalized for this and an apology ASAP.

I want a lodge my complain regarding this & I want to know that is there such a rule ? Thank you.
This is regardin WP-NH 3081 kottwawa -borella bus. I gave 15 for 12 Rs/= bus fair and eventhough conductor has lots of coins in his pockets and hand he didn’t give me the balance and continuously asked me to give 2 Rs/= instead. So finally I didn’t get my balance.
So also driver scolded to a one passenger in a very unpleasant manner. Please consider about these things

The conductors in the busses of keppetipola depot which runs from welimada to bandarawela does not let school students with season tickets in until after all the others get in. This is very inconvenient as the bus is already loaded with passengers when students get in. So they mostly have to go on the foot board. You should really look into this because it is very dangerous.
Yesterday evening I took the madakalapuva-panadura bus from ingiriya to sawgashandiya. When I’m getting into the bus, driver and conductor said nothing to me and let me get into the bus. (usually, I take this bus to reach sawgashandiya.). But when I rang the bell to get off from the bus, bus driver got so angry and he spoked to me very angrily and threatened me to not to get on this bus again. Those words, that he spoke, is not appropriate for a lady, not even for an animal. I was so scared and embarrassed and I cried a lot at that movement but the driver keeps scolding me again and again. This should not happen to anyone because they got their wages because we are paying taxes and bus fee for the sltb and drivers and conductors should treat their customers well.
event though if the bus driver wanted to say that I can’t take this bus to travel sawgashandiya , he could have said that nicely at the first place so I can take another bus.
If you guyz don’t take any actions against this, I will put a complaint against that bus driver about this harassment
Administrating is shot, bibila -panadure bus had tire punch passing haputhale at 11.30am, bt who ever that responsible person not given permission for Charges of the rest, and driver desided to go to sltb point nearest by slowly , (balangoda) with passengers, 2 1/2 hours time rated by sltb administrators! !!
Hi,
I was travelling to Colombo from Gampola on 16th August,2019 by GP58 Bus Blongs to Gampola Depot. The bus driver was always on the phone and driving below 40 most of the time due to that. He was dialing the phone in one hand while the bus was passing Utuwankante. Please force drivers not to use the phone while driving and make sure they reach the destination on time.
I traveled today wattala to pettah in NB-8876 welisara depot bus. That bus conductor gave some hand writed tickets. it’s not a valided printed ticket and his take over charge all passangers. wattala to colombo 23Rs but his take 30Rs. i asked why to more then take money. his telling “we’re going fast”
Kadawatha – Pettah (261 rout) bus drivers, driving between Hendala junction and Mahara Junction is worst and too dangers to the pedestrians. The drivers are running race, between the two buses. The school kids are afraid to walk on the road. The drivers are might be drank while driving.
I could suggest to fix speed breakers on the rush areas to reduce their speed. Who could be helped on this issue?

This is to lodge a complaint on the bus ruining on route number 215 Kiribathgoda-Ragama. On 21-04-2021 I got into the bus from Ambalama junction to get down from Kiribathgoda where I received a ticket to Kiribathgoda mentioning that I got in from Kurusa junction which stop is like 1.5km way behind form where I get in.
When asked he said that is how ticket machine works. But when I was charged yesterday for the same distance it was rs.6 less.
I raise this voice because there are people who spend rs.6/- with enormous difficulty.
Rectify your tickets machine.
Hawa eliya to Nuwara eliya bus fare is 17/- But
If we give 20/- the conductor didn’t give the balance.. Today I traveled in a Kandapola bus with my brother and i gave 40/- When I ask for the balance conductor told me “you must have the balance if you come to Nuwara eliya”, I shocked. (Per person Just Rs3…Forget it, but his way of talking is very bad)
There are lot of people got into the bus at the same place and they also not had their balance. (For an example there are 6 people’s travelled the conductor get Rs 6*3= 18/=) If they ask their balance conductors didn’t respond them.. Please take some actions for this problem.. I hope ur considerations..
