Starting from 1 July, 6 more intra-city bus routes offering subsidised ticket fares will be launched in Da Nang, bringing the total number of the city’s subsidised bus routes to 12.

Buses, all equipped with air conditioning, will operate daily on these routes every 10 - 20 minutes from 5.30am to 9.00pm.

The launching of the 6 new subsidised intra-city bus routes connecting the city centre to suburban areas aims to meet growing travel demands of commuters, hereby encouraging locals to use public transport services rather than their personal vehicles, easing traffic congestion and reducing environmental pollution.

To mark the occasion, all local residents and visitors can travel free on the 6 soon-to-be-operated routes for the 30 days after the official launch.

On 1 July, 3 out of the 6 more intra-city bus routes will officially be launched. The routes are: Han River Port - Hoa Tien Commune, Hoa Vang District; Han River Port - the Hoa Vang District Administration Centre; and Inter-provincial Coach Station to the Tho Quang Ward, Son Tra District.
