Planning ministry extends free RTL ferry service in Lhaviyani Atoll

The Ministry of National Planning, Housing and Infrastructure on Sunday announced the decision to extend Raajje Transport Link (RTL)'s free ferry service period in Lhaviyani atoll.

The second phase of the nation-wide integrated ferry network, RTL, began last Tuesday in Lhaviyani atoll. The planning ministry initially stated that it would begin charging fares this Monday; however, the ferry service will remain free until proper routes within the atoll are established.
