The Department of Land Transport says reports claiming conventional tuk-tuks will soon be banned from Bangkok's inner districts are premature, stressing the proposal remains at the public consultation stage.
Director-general Sorapong Paitoonphong said the draft ministerial regulation has not been submitted to the government and no operational details have been finalised. An online consultation running until Aug 27 seeks public feedback on restricting petrol-powered three-wheelers in the capital's inner areas to curb air and noise pollution.
