Nevertheless, the poor coordination of bus tickets distribution causes unnecessary congestions at main bus terminals nationwide. The growth of electronic commerce (E-Commerce) in the country has provided another means of solving the ticketing problem by the employing E-Commerce applications to introduce .an online ticket reservation system.
