The Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Peshawar services would be resumed from October 25 on the recommendation of the bus service company.

According to the details, the spokesperson of the BRT-Peshawar said the bus manufacturing company’s inspection team has submitted its report to the government on the recent fire incidents in the BRT Peshawar project.

According to the spokesperson of the BRT Peshawar, the service was suspended on the recommendation of the manufacturers to help them inspect all buses and fix all the issues after fire incidents.

The Spokesperson said the investigation team had found that the motor capacitors/ controllers in the buses were not working properly which are being replaced with new ones.

The official said the report found that the installed capacitor was passing more electricity than needed which had led to fire eruption incidents.
