Bangkok Bus Rapid Transit

Posted:05/29/2012 Last Modified:08/03/2025 Views:58

Bangkok BRT buses have their own lanes and can travel faster than regular buses. The BRT currently consists of one line that travels from Sathorn close to Chong Nonsi BTS station, along the sharp bend of the Chao Phraya river to Ratchapruek station. Up until January 2011 the fare has been 10 baht per ride. From February 2011 a flexible scheme was planned to be introduced where bus rides are 12-20 baht depending on distance travelled where every 2 stations cost approximately 2 baht more.
