Management of Intercity STC Coaches Limited has denied reports claiming that its online booking platform has been shut down for a long period.
Recent media reports suggested that passengers were facing difficulties booking tickets online due to an alleged outage of the system.
However, the Deputy Managing Director of STC, Nuru Hamidan, described the reports as false and urged the public to ignore them.
According to him, the company’s online booking platform is working properly and continues to serve passengers across the country and beyond.
Mr Hamidan said STC has already contacted the media outlet that published the reports and asked them to retract the stories and apologise.
He encouraged Ghanaians to continue using STC services, saying the company has made bus booking easier through its improved online system.
Speaking to the news editor of Tobinco Media Group – Atinka TV/FM/online – Cynthia Akans, the deputy managing director opened the booking portal on camera to prove that the system was functioning.
The demonstration showed passengers successfully booking tickets online to different destinations within and outside Ghana from the comfort of their homes.
Over the years, STC has faced challenges with a shortage of buses, which has affected transport services to some parts of the country.
To improve operations, Mr Hamidan announced that the company has procured more than 120 new buses expected to arrive in the country before the end of the year.
He said the new buses will help expand STC’s services and improve transport for passengers.
