The Ministry of Transport has ordered the State Railway of Thailand (SRT) to reduce fares on the Red Line extension routes (Bang Sue to Taling Chan and Rangsit) within a month, citing their higher cost compared to the Blue Line.
SRT will conduct free trial runs on these two extension routes from March 26th to July 28th, allowing the public to ride for free before the revised fares are introduced.
