Revolutionary Digitalization of Sri Lanka’s Motor Traffic Department

Sri Lanka to Digitize Motor Traffic Department, Introduce E-Ticket System

Sri Lanka will commence the digitalization of its Motor Traffic Department, including introducing an e-ticket system despite opposition, Minister of Transport Bandula Gunawardena told Legacy Daily.

“We are trying to digitalize the Department of Motor Traffic,” Gunawardena told reporters yesterday. “We are also trying to digitalize the way in which fees are being calculated on the expressway by calling for tenders.”

However, Gunawardena said that despite proposals for an e-ticketing system to combat theft by bus conductors, there has been opposition from transportation workers who are ready to take legal action. The introduction of the e-ticketing system is expected to bring more transparency and efficiency, reducing the chances of theft and improving the overall experience for commuters.
