Bangkok train riders warned on Covid as crowds return after lockdown
Passenger numbers on Bangkok electric trains more than doubled after lockdown measures were partially lifted on May 3, the Department of Rail Transport said.
The department revealed that passengers on the public transport service increased from 189,000 on May 1 to 400,000 on May 4.
Expecting to see more travellers return as the capital gradually emerges from lockdown, the department has asked passengers to keep their guard up against Covid-19 during train rides.
Passengers are requested to look after their health, wear face masks, leave their homes earlier and follow social distancing measures in stations and on trains.
