From January 15, 2022, it will be mandatory for every three-wheeler used for passenger transport and traveling on Western province (WP) roads to have a meter.
Accordingly, the meter three-wheeler coverage is expected to be completed by June 22, 2022, island-wide.
The All Island Three Wheeler Drivers And Owners Association said that this was a long-awaited decision by the government.
Three Extraordinary Gazette Notifications pertaining to the regulations for three-wheelers have already been issued.
Out of more than 1.2 million registered three-wheelers in the country, about 800,000 three-wheelers are engaged in this profession.
